Yeah, huge props to Goldberry and Susan! And I'd also like to point out, if y'alls haven't already seen it, our Creative Writing faculty issued a statement regarding Jan. 19 on the CW homepage (<a href="http://creativewriting.ucr.edu" target="_blank">creativewriting.ucr.edu</a>). CWPA is on a roll!<br>
<br>On a related note, Rachelle and I hand-delivered the letter from our students, alumni, and faculty to the Chancellor last Friday. We also sent him an email. We've not yet received a reply, but I did take the opportunity to read the letter publicly during the Free Speech portion of Wednesday's rally. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the letter, especially the signers. Rachelle or I will let you know when we receive a response.<br>

<div>Hi everyone,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I wanted to give kudos to Professors Goldberry Long and Susan Straight for their passionate and inspired words at today's bell tower rally about the UC budget cuts and the police response to the campus protests on January 19th. David Campos and Rachelle
Cruz also contributed poetry, giving our program a strong voice in the campus dialogue. Goldberry and Susan spoke for honesty, aspiration, and critical thinking and action as essential to higher education. I was proud today to be a part of CWPA.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Peace,</div>
<div> </div>
