everyone is deserving and worthy of love and respect and kindness and support,\u201d President Bailey says. The university has love for all, regardless of where they are from, their last names, how they identify themselves, their abilities, their military status, their hometowns or how they choose to vote. \u201cYou still have a home here at SOU,\u201d the president says. Current events have highlighted the divisions throughout society, but 91²Ö¿âprovides an environment where people of all stripes can live and learn together with respect \u2013 and love. \u201cThis is not a political stance, and it certainly is not a political act of defiance,\u201d President Bailey says. \u201cI think we can do two things at the same time. We can be honorable, and we can make sure we\u2019re following all of the federal and state laws. And at same time, we can hold true to the principle that everyone is deserving of love.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='av-social-sharing-box

We can be honorable, and we can make sure we\u2019re following all of the federal and state laws.
