Despite the challenges posed by recent executive orders, College of the Siskiyous remains committed to advancing diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility (DEIA) initiatives. We believe that creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all individuals, especially for our disproportionately impacted populations, is essential to our mission of providing a high-quality education. We will continue to comply with all applicable laws and regulations while striving to create a more equitable and inclusive campus.
At COS, You Matter (February 9, 2026)
In light of recent dehumanizing rhetoric and the tragic loss of lives within institutional systems this year, College of the Siskiyous reaffirms its commitment to student safety and dignity.
The use of racialized charged narratives aimed at the Obamas and the number of ICE-related deaths this year reveal a disturbing pattern, a tendency to treat human life as expendable. We reject this. While we value a healthy democracy built on diverse political opinions, the humanity of our students is non-negotiable. We stand together to ensure Siskiyous remains a supportive environment for growth, belonging, and mutual respect.
