Editor's Note: UTSA President Taylor Eighmy and UTSA Interim Dean of Students LT Robinson sent this email to UTSA faculty, staff and students today.
(May 2, 2019) -- Dear Roadrunners,
We are writing this morning to follow up on our email to you yesterday to reiterate important information that we hope you will widely share with others in our Roadrunner community. The following messages bear repeating, given the seriousness of the matters at hand:
We are keenly aware that yesterday’s events may have triggered conflicting emotions for survivors of sexual assault and their advocates, especially given this stressful time of the semester. Please remember that help is available. Staff in our Student Advocacy, Violence Prevention and Empowerment and Counseling Services offices are prepared to assist students who need additional support, and faculty/staff are encouraged to take advantage of our Employee Assistance Program.
The Roadrunner community is strong and resilient. We implore you to access and utilize the university’s resources to seek support and share information. Trusting in UTSA’s processes and the many staff members who are committed to ensuring the health and wellbeing of our students is the surest way to cultivate a zero-tolerance environment.
With appreciation,
Taylor Eighmy LT Robinson
President Interim Dean of Students
