Mako Media Network condemns violence

A MAKO MEDIA NETWORK EDITORIAL

As the Israeli-Palestinian conflict continues to unfold, we at Mako Media Network share our deepest condolences for the innocent lives lost. We are sensitive to those of you impacted by the continuing tragedies, and we are actively listening for ways we can show support and promote peace.

NSU President George L. Hanbury II released a public statement on Oct. 10 about the conflict.

“Guided by our Core Values, our community stands firmly against all forms of violence and rejects hatred or discrimination from any group,” Hanbury wrote. “Our sympathies and prayers are with everyone who is affected by this deadly conflict, especially those within our NSU community.”

Hanbury also shared that on Oct. 9, more than 100 students, faculty and staff came together for a vigil to offer support and prayer.

“Part of what makes us NSU Sharks is respectful tolerance of all peaceful views. We demonstrate this daily on our campuses and through our activities,” Hanbury wrote. “The NSU community will remain united in our embrace of these organic values as a demonstration of what we mean by inclusion.”

At MMN, we strive for a community of peace and compassion. We hope that a resolution will be reached soon to put an end to the violence.
