Yesterday (Tuesday, May 19, 2015) at 5pm, Dr. Susannah Bartlow was fired. Below, I am including the petition circulating to help reinstate her.

President Lovell,
Dr. Susannah Bartlow, Director of the GSRC and instructor, is an invaluable asset to Marquette's community. She has fostered many students in academic pursuits and impacted our personal lives through her presence on campus. Her commitment to promoting diversity and acceptance is unparalleled. Dr. Bartlow's relief from her position at this university greatly hinders the Marquette student body and the institution as a whole.

NOTE: This petition concerns ONLY the firing of Dr. Susannah Bartlow. For reasons that are clear, we not making a statement about the mural or the woman it features. This petition is for Dr. Bartlow, whose presence at Marquette is greatly needed.
