Quotes by Ruth J. Simmons

  • "I'm prepared to fight as hard as I can against unions entering the University on behalf of our students."
  • "It really pains me greatly to hear from graduate students that graduate education is a lower priority here."
  • "The committee's work is not about whether or how we should pay reparations. That was never the intent nor will the payment of reparations be the outcome. This is an effort designed to involve the campus community in a discovery of the meaning of our past."
