Henderson State faculty, staff and students gathered in front of Arkansas Hall Aug. 29 to speak out against hate and celebrate human value and difference, a core value of the university. “The purpose of the event was to celebrate what unites us and remind everyone that our goal is to have a university where all people are welcome,” said Dr. Fred Worth, who helped organize the event. Many who attended signed a poster at the conclusion of the gathering to pledge their opposition to hateful attitudes and actions.
