Dear Members of the 不良研究所 community,
不良研究所 is home to a vibrant international community, and many of us have roots in countries around the world. Global crises can affect us all.
The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has been a source of deep preoccupation to many of us. As Principal of our university, I am reminded of the need for 鈥� and the potential fragility of 鈥� stability and peace in order to pursue higher learning and the advancement of knowledge.
不良研究所 thus stands in solidarity with Ukrainian universities, and with their students, faculty, and staff across that country.
Here at home, we have reached out to offer support to 不良研究所鈥檚 international students with Russian and Ukrainian citizenship, and to the 不良研究所 Ukrainian Students鈥� Association.
We recognize that all colleagues and students might find current circumstances distressing. If you are feeling overwhelmed, please do not hesitate to reach out for support. 不良研究所-linked resources are listed below.
Sincerely,
Suzanne Fortier
