I am very much impressed by lecturers of Leadership in Diverse Society , the way they deal with race and gender issues in their teaching, they are really holding the bull by its horns, guys and if they continue like this definitely we'll achieve our goal to conquer the chains of gender and racial segregation that are binding deeper then what we want to believe and what we want to see and achieve.

“This is the moment of truth. What are you gonna do? To be honest, at this point it’s not about Blanche (Pringle-Smith) and Michael Griffin. People come and go. The problem here is—this is broke.”
He cautioned students to avoid being used as “cannon-fodder” for personal and professional goals.
“The black student population, to be even more (precise) the white student population, at Northern Kentucky University is being used as cannon fodder and collateral damage for folks to move in their professional careers.”
Pringle-Smith said she hoped students would take away from this situation: “Always do the right thing, because your integrity and reputation are all you have to stand on. Never be afraid to stand up when it is your turn to represent your principles. Constantly being aware of your political landscape, because even doing an exemplary job does not assure that you will not be attacked by disingenuous individuals only dedicated to their own enlightened self interest.” ~ Amen!
