Statement from ºÚÁÏÍø³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏSystem President Judy Genshaft on Parkland Tragedy and ºÚÁÏÍø³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏSystem Support Services

Our university has a very close relationship with Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, and Wednesday’s horrific tragedy has left us heartbroken. We offer our deepest sympathies to the victims and their families and the entire Broward County community, and our thanks to the heroes whose actions prevented further loss of life and injuries. Many graduates of that high school attend USF, and we will provide them and others with the resources and support needed at this most difficult time.
