Dear colleagues, dear students,

I write to inform you that today I sent our petition to Hamline University's Board of Trustees on our collective behalf. At the time of the submission we were well over 7,000 signatories and our numbers continue to grow on a daily basis. Please do keep sharing our petition.

I will keep you abreast of developments as they unfold. In the meanwhile, I wish to extend my renewed thanks for your resounding support of Dr. Erika López Prater, academic freedom, faculty rights, and Islamic artistic heritage in all of its richness and diversity.

All best wishes,

Prof. Christiane Gruber, Ph.D.
