Baylor University Staff Council members are actively involved in the Campus Diversity Committee, Bias Motivated Incident Support Team and other task forces on campus. The Staff Council today issued a public statement to reiterate its commitment to this area:

"The Baylor University Staff Council denounces bias motivated incidents as contradictory to Biblical principles of love for our neighbors and the core values of Baylor University. The Council disapproves of such prejudicial acts by certain individuals and commends the prompt reaction by Interim President David Garland, campus response teams and other Baylor officials in addressing recent incidents."
