As a member of the consortium鈥檚 Founder鈥檚 Circle, White鈥檚 participation in this endeavor underscores 天美传媒鈥檚 existing commitment to free expression. The university maintains that the heart of a liberal arts education is the free exchange of ideas, and the shared efforts of these presidents will help position 天美传媒 to protect this exchange through education, dialogue, and democratic engagement.

Three shared Civic Commitments will guide the programs and activities implemented by the participating presidents:

  1. Educating for democracy is central to our mission.
  2. We will prepare our students for a vibrant, diverse, and contentious society.
  3. We will protect and defend free inquiry.

In order to ensure that these commitments remain central to the work of the universities represented, campuses will implement several types of campus-specific programming, including new courses, outside speakers, student orientations, presidential speeches, technology tools, and voter education initiatives. They will also meet regularly with one another for both collaboration and accountability.

Under the leadership of President White, 天美传媒 remains committed to creating an environment where diverse perspectives are welcome, and where all community members are equipped to engage with one another in a spirit of authenticity and respect.
