Last year, UT made national headlines when UT Law students hosted a "Ghetto Fabulous" party where participants were to act and dress in black-face. It is apparent that race relations are an issue on the UT Austin campus and that UT administration has failed to address the issue of tolerance and race relations.<br /><br />Please join us and <a href=http://www.soymechista.org/>UT Austin MEChA</a> in taking a stance!!! Please sign onto the online petition to let UT President William Powers, the Office of Diversity, the Dean of Students, and the Office of Student Affairs know that such racist events against our communities are UNACCEPTABLE.<br /><br />http://www.larazaunida.com/action_ut_raza.htm<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5558605573223279573-4592221571111968899?l=utassc.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Contact us at ASSC.SSWUT@gmail.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13087578986787624043noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5558605573223279573.post-85720566744324267582007-09-24T22:30:00.000-05:002007-09-25T19:32:52.260-05:00October 9th at 11am<br />on the Main Mall<br />Click <a href="http://deanofstudents.utexas.edu/cesarchavez/unveil.php" target="_blank">here</a> to RSVP<br /><a href="http://deanofstudents.utexas.edu/cesarchavez/images/statueImg.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px;" src="http://deanofstudents.utexas.edu/cesarchavez/images/statueImg.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5558605573223279573-8572056674432426758?l=utassc.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Contact us at ASSC.SSWUT@gmail.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13087578986787624043noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5558605573223279573.post-88187060134052636682007-09-23T15:48:00.000-05:002007-09-25T19:29:29.004-05:00<center><br />Don't be a stranger!
