Welcome
The Dennis Brutus/Merrill Goldwyn Center for the Study of Human Rights.
 
"The worst sin towards our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them. That is the essence of humanity."
 
 -George Bernard Shaw
Mission Statement
The mission of the Center for the Study of Human Rights (CSHR) is to raise awareness of human rights violations and abuses that plague our world today. The CSHR promotes awareness by developing programs and activities, incorporating human rights issues into the University curriculum, providing resources for academic research, and collaborating with the University’s chapter of Amnesty International.
