On behalf of all of us at Collin College, we are distressed to learn of the rise in violent actions directed at Asian Americans around the nation. Our core values at Collin College emphasize the value of showing dignity and respect for all. Through education, we strive to deliver a brighter future for our students and our communities.

At Collin College we do not condone or tolerate discrimination of any kind. I ask that in these troubled times each of us remain purposeful in setting an example of harmony, fairness, and civility in our communities and with each other. It is not always easy to maintain civility in times of duress but when we do so, it proves to be one of our finest moments.
