When a Mather House tutor was roused from his bed late Saturday night by the sound of a vandal crashing into his door, he decided that "enough is enough."

And it seems that many of the students of Mather House agree. In response to last weekend's incident, the most recent in a string of acts of homophobic vandalism this year aimed at tutor K. Kyriell Muhammad, Mather students are circulating a pledge of community tolerance.

The pledge, which begins, "We Live Here Together," has been signed by three-quarters of Mather residents, according to Mather House Committee Chair Wendy M. Lu '00.

Andrea Volfova '00, a House Committee member, said the pledge arose out of students' "general feeling that the House did not do enough" to respond to the recent homophobic incidents.

Justin M. Krebs '00 wrote the pledge Sunday night, and on Monday morning Krebs and Aadil T. Ginwala '00 began collecting signatures in the Mather dining hall.

The pledge now hangs prominently in the dining hall, along with the signatures of more than 300 supporters.

"It's really gratifying to see Mather taking care of Mather," Ginwala said.

Some Mather students said they have not yet had the chance to read and sign the pledge. Many have also posted copies on their doors as a sign of solidarity.
