WUSA is saddened by the needless loss of lives in the recent Israel/Palestinian conflict and glad to see a ceasefire agreement has been reached.

We recognize many of our students are affected by this conflict. We acknowledge they are being affected in ways we cannot fully understand and extend our deepest sympathies to them.

We are here to support affected students through this difficult time.
