Eleven months have passed since the horrific Memorial Day killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Today, a&＃160;jury has rendered its verdict&＃160;in the case against Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer charged with the murder of George Floyd. While you may find some solace with today&＃8217;s decision, this remains a difficult, painful and emotionally draining time for many of our community members, especially our students, staff and faculty of color.&＃160; In the months since George Floyd was murdered, painful tragedy has compounded upon painful tragedy: continuing violence toward Black and Brown people, a wave of anti-Asian violence, the mass shooting in Atlanta, a recent shooting in Indianapolis killing eight&＃8212;including four in the city&＃8217;s Sikh community. Whatever you are feeling today, please know that I am here in solidarity with you and our community is here to support you. As the chancellor shared in his message on Monday, I want to remind you of some of the support resources that are available: counseling for students through the&＃160;Habif Health and Wellness Center&＃160;and counseling for faculty and staff through the Employee Assistance Program,&＃160;Work-Life Solutions. Further support is also available from the&＃160;Center for Diversity and Inclusion,&＃160;the&＃160;Office of Diversity Programs&＃160;and the&＃160;Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. As the past months have affirmed, the jury&＃8217;s judgment today is not the final word. We remain duty bound to strive toward solidifying our commitment to inclusion, diversity, equity and access at WashU Olin.
