Anita Hill

Her talk today was excellent and thought provoking. Her concluding remarks and response to a question that a student asked were especially important and meaningful to me. In essence, if you want something to change - be a part of that process and stick to it. If you want to see change, be a part of the change. So true. Too many times, we pay lip service to changing things, yet do not stick it out or just provided a very limited response. As Anita Hill stated, her testimony did not change or stop sexual harassment, but peoples' response to what she did, started the process of change.
