 While the president of Bemidji State and Northwest Technical College is reaffirming her commitment to supportive campuses after President Trump's temporary travel ban on seven Muslim-majority countries. In an email sent to BSU and NTC students earlier today, President Faith Hensrewd assured the community that the administration would continue to provide a, quote, safe, respectful, and welcoming campus community for all. President Hensrewd did not offer her support or disapproval for the executive order in the letter. While the president was not available for comment, a representative for the university said that taking sides was not the letter's intent. I think Dr. Hensrewd is focused on making sure that everyone understands that we are and will remain a community of respect, tolerance, and support for difference, and that that that was existing before this conversation occurred and will be important going forward. Only one BSU student from Syria could be affected by the order according to a college representative. The full letter sent to students can be found on our website at lptv.org backslash news.
