University of Missouri Student Health Center Staff Banned from Decorating for Holidays

After being the epicenter of racial unrest on college campuses across the country, the University of Missouri isn’t feeling the holiday spirit.

Susan Even, the executive director of the University of Missouri Student Health Center, sent an email to staff members instructing them not to decorate their areas for the holidays in order to ensure a more “safe, comfortable place” for students.

I’m aware that many of you are in the mood to decorate your areas with the holiday spirit in mind.  However, after discussing it with ET, I’ve decided that holiday decorations will not be displayed this year. Our mission is to provide a safe, comfortable place for all students to receive their health care. Without meaning to, some of the holiday symbols that we may display could contradict that mission.

As I announced last week, ET has created a new standing Committee on Diversity to help our center become more inclusive and culturally responsive.  One of their tasks will be to help us with this very issue.

I know this decision will be disappointing to some of you, but I can assure you that the kindness, warmth and compassion that you show all students is as important now as any time of the year.

Mizzou is a cluster**** and a complete waste of money.

Apologies to any CC members that may have attended that particular institution.

Of course they'll overlook any decorations put up for Kwanzaa.
