Hi Gunnar, I just noticed that while I had read this reply, I hadn't acted upon it yet.

After all, the issue of different cultural backrounds etc is _also_ much farther reaching than the issue of respect. So I agree that this could use some improvement, but I'm not sure how to improve it, exactly. Suggestions are welcome. > and the mention of the Diversity Statement > does not really IMO fit into this second section.
