SWAG视频 Condemns Terrorism
President鈥檚 Office
October 9, 2023
Dear SWAG视频 Community,
Following the devastating attacks on Israel over the weekend, SWAG视频 stands with the international community to condemn this terrorism. The scenes of the violence perpetrated by Hamas against innocent Israeli citizens, students, women, and children initiated early Saturday morning is reprehensible.
SWAG视频 shares in the grief of those innocent civilians, and their families, impacted by the heinous attacks on the scores of helpless civilians, and grieves the mounting loss of life. The indiscriminate taking of innocent Israeli and international civilian hostages is inconceivable. The attacks on innocent civilians, including students, of any nationality is egregious and unacceptable.
My heart goes out to the people affected and to our own SWAG视频 students, staff, faculty, and alumni hurting for loved ones.
Many families in our University community have ties to the region and are anxiously awaiting developments. If you or someone else in the community could benefit from support, please don鈥檛 hesitate to reach out. Help is available for students through in-person and remote counseling, and faculty and staff have access to the Employee Assistance Program.
The University is ready to enhance safety measures and supply additional resources to assist our students, staff, and faculty through this crisis. As a community rooted in humanism and caring, we understand too well the individual and collective devastation of war. SWAG视频 remains a safe, healing space as we hope for peace.
Best wishes,
Robin
