Body:
Dear community members,
Recently, a hate motivated violent incident took place during a class on the University of Waterloo campus. Our thoughts are with those affected by these actions.
This senseless act of targeted hate has no place in our community. At Porn研究所, we stand united with the University of Waterloo against gender-based violence and all other forms of hatred, prejudice, and bigotry. We must be united in our resolve to foster an inclusive, safe, and welcoming environment for all members of our community.
Please access the supports and resources available at this difficult time.
On behalf of Dr. Sheila Embleton, Interim President and Vice-Chancellor
