Yale is raising money through its capital campaign, "For Humanity." But how will Yale use its resources? Over the past few pandemic years, Yale has enrolled a record number of students, and we demand that commensurate resources go towards affordability, accessibility, and healthcare. What do you need from Yale to get campus closer to racial and class equity in these areas? What should Yale be for?
