Over the past few weeks, GPSG student leaders have been assessing an appropriate plan to support our community through these difficult, confusing, and emotionally taxing times.

As a Muslim student who attends Duke, I feel a lot more relieved with these words and actions. This has been long awaited and should have been addressed much earlier. Thank you for addressing the rising Islamaphobia and the isolation too many of our students have been feeling during this time. I hope that with these resources and conversations allowing all of us to share among our community combat these feelings of isolation and suffering. I hope Duke openly supports its students in calling for a ceasefire and supporting the people of Palestine.
