4worldlovers: In Response to Supreme Court Decisions Regarding Admissions in Higher Education

You have received President Salovey’s recent statement affirming Yale’s commitment to creating “an inclusive, diverse, and excellent educational environment” in the wake of today’s Supreme Court decisions regarding the consideration of race in admissions.

The David Geffen School of Drama affirms its unequivocal support for this proposition. While we must comply with the Supreme Court decisions, our graduate conservatory’s dedication to inclusive admissions processes will not waver from its focus on applicants’ artistry, self-awareness, collaborative skill, curiosity, resilience, and ambition.

Yale University has announced a gift of $150 million from the David Geffen Foundation in support of the School of Drama.

This extraordinary and unprecedented gift ensures that from this day forward, in perpetuity, full-time students in degree and certificate programs will receive 100% tuition remission, beginning with the 2021–22 academic year. These programs are now, and always will be, “tuition free.”

In celebration of this gift, the largest in the history of the American theater, Yale School of Drama is now the David Geffen School of Drama at Yale University.

4worldlovers: Yale University acknowledges that indigenous peoples and nations, including Mohegan, Mashantucket Pequot, Eastern Pequot, Schaghticoke, Golden Hill Paugussett, Niantic, and the Quinnipiac and other Algonquian speaking peoples, have stewarded through generations the lands and waterways of what is now the state of Connecticut. We honor and respect the enduring and continuing relationship that exists between these peoples and nations and this land.

Yale Rep resolves to foster and sustain an equitable and anti-racist environment where members of our community can thrive in life and art.
