11 Jewish souls we brutally and viscously attacked yesterday as they worshipped at a Synagogue in Pittsburgh. The murderer shouted,”all Jews must die!”

The School of Hospitality and Tourism Management at Roosevelt University CONDEMNS, in the strongest possible terms, this attack and ALL forms of anti Semitism that threaten the safety of the Jewish people. We stand today with the Jewish community and our love and prayers go out to the families suffering unbearable losses yesterday.

NEVER FORGET.
