At the University of Arizona in Tucson, the dean’s office reported that since Sept. 11 at least 39 Arab students pulled out of their courses, citing fear as a primary factor. The University of Colorado in Denver had 45 Arab students withdraw. Perhaps it’s time for these college officials to draft a more honest, fair and inclusive anti-intimidation letter. Students of all political leanings and ethnic backgrounds would be the better...
