• Like many of you, we were shaken by the news of the murder of Breonna Taylor on March 13th as she slept. For the last six months, there have been public protests and outcries calling for justice to be served. Moments ago, the announcement from the Kentucky Attorney General communicated that one former police officer, Brett Hankison, has been indicted by a grand jury on three counts of wanton endangerment in the first degree. Two other officers involved in the March shooting -- Sgt. John Mattingly and Det. Myles Cosgrove -- were not charged. Today, we continue to mourn a strong, Black woman a little older than most of our students whose life was brutally ended;  today, we continue to see individuals who justify violence in the name of upholding white supremacy, and today, we rage about the continued acts of violence against Black people and other people of color. While we do not have answers, we do have each other. The Office of Multicultural Student Affairs is here to support our students of color as we yet again navigate the looming question of “if not now…when?” If you need to be in a space with others that see and value you and that are here to affirm and encourage you, let us know. #SayHerName #BlackLivesMatter #BLM #IowaState

  • Make sure you are always sanitizing your hands while out in public. A good rule of thumb is to avoid touching your T-Zone area as much as possible. Remember to practice healthy behaviors and do your part to keep our campus safe. #CyclonesCare #WeAreMSA
