Statement from Chancellor Vitter Supporting the University of Virginia and the Charlottesville Communities in Wake of Tragedy

August 14, 2017 Statements

The University of Mississippi vehemently condemns the racism, bigotry, and the acts of violence committed by hate groups in Charlottesville this past weekend.  There is no place for violence and intolerance — not in our communities, on our campuses, or in our country.  No words can adequately express how saddened we are by these acts.   We stand with the University of Virginia community and send our sympathies to all victims of this tragedy.  Please join us in keeping Charlottesville and UVA in our thoughts as they heal, find unity, and move forward.  We ask members of the UM community to support one another, follow the principles of our Creed, and access campus resources should they be needed.
