We begin 2022 both mindful and hopeful. The COVID-19 pandemic, the heightened racial and social inequality, the rise of anti-Asian hate, as well as the disrupted 2020 Census and the contentious 2020 presidential election, together created an environment of disorder. The world, our nation, and our institutions of higher education were turned upside down these last two years. Amid the chaos and calamity, it is more important than ever to remember the words of Martin Luther King Jr.: “Commit yourself to the noble struggle for human rights. You will make a greater person of yourself, a greater nation of your country and a finer world to live in.”
