“Racial Injustice and acts of violence against members of our communities are never acceptable. The member institutions of the Mountain West together reaffirm our commitment to the principles of inclusiveness and equity for all, which are core values for the Conference and our individual institutions.
We are committed to come together as a Conference and society to promote the understanding and respectfully address these issues in our nation. By virtue of our diverse communities, higher education and intercollegiate athletics continue to offer a platform by which positive social change can be realized.”
