President Karl Scholz sent the following message to the UO Community on October 13, 2023.

Dear University of Oregon community members,

Many university presidents have already released statements about the horrors of the genocidal actions of Hamas last weekend and the response by Israel. I’ve been slow in finding the words to convey the depths of my sadness and concern in a way that captures the magnitude of the terror and the unfathomable loss of life. I condemn genocide.

We express sympathy and compassion to the Jewish, Israeli, and Palestinian communities impacted by the war and resulting loss, suffering, and uncertainty.
