Statement on Recent Events in Israel, Gaza, and Campus Life

On behalf of the Program in Jewish Culture & Society, I write to express our deepest collective concern to all those who have suffered by the appalling terrorist attacks by Hamas and the escalating war in Israel and Gaza. I would like to stress that there is no place for antisemitism, Islamophobia or hate for any faith at Illinois. A message of concern with respect and tolerance from Chancellor Jones can be found here.
