Welcome to Art
Chico State supports our students, regardless of their immigration status, and welcomes Muslim students, Jewish students, students of color, DREAMers, DACA students, and refugees; the Art & Art History Department supports all these students; and I support all these students. I believe executive orders and other anti-immigrant policies and statements by the president are violations of justice, freedom, and our values, and that those who march against or otherwise oppose ethnic, racial, and religious groups, or individuals based on their gender or sexuality, fail to understand the American project and the fundamental value that diversity brings to our community. I am here for each of you, regardless of your beliefs on this issue.
- Asa Mittman, Chair, Department of Art & Art History
Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can help in any way to support you or anyone you know through this time:
