It would be strategic for us to work on healing these traumas and learning how to offer each other compassion, even within stark disagreement.

Following major protests by student group POC at IC, students at Ithaca College have voted “no confidence” in President Tom Rochon.
Ithaca College’s Student Government Association’s recently completed vote of no confidence on President Tom Rochon and the faculty vote of no confidence currently underway can be understood in the context of similar actions at colleges and universities nationwide.
The summary is, Rochon’s priorities (and potentially heart) aren’t what Ithaca College really needs, now.
Around 200 people attended the event, filling all the seats in the room, and those who couldn’t find a seat lined up along the walls.
A teach-in focusing on the racial climate at Ithaca College, the no confidence votes in President Rochon and other recent campus issues will be held Nov. 19 in Textor 102 during the noon hour.
