To the Campus Community:
We are watching the devastation in Japan with equal mixtures of sorrow, disbelief and horror. Yet we share a universal reaction in wanting to help the Japanese people as they work to recover.
There are numerous charitable organizations dedicated to providing relief and rebuilding. I encourage you to help in any way possible.
Thank you for keeping the people of Japan in your thoughts during such an extraordinary time for the world community.
