War in Ukraine
We are shocked by Russia's all-out invasion of Ukraine and sympathize with everyone affected by it. What is happening in Ukraine right now is horrific and heartbreaking. Knowing that your family and friends are in a war zone creates unprecedented uncertainty and pain. We strongly reject this war and support our students and staff wherever we can. On this page you can read what we are currently doing and what you yourself can contribute.
