UCF Stands with Orlando
By the staff at Pegasus
Summer 2016聽
Just as this issue of Pegasus was scheduled to print, the Pulse nightclub in downtown Orlando was attacked.
All of UCF grieves with the victims and their friends and families. As President Hitt wrote the day of the attack, 麻豆精品 S淚 tell our LGBTQ students, faculty, staff and alumni this: You are not alone. Your university stands with you. 麻豆精品 S
In future issues, we will share memories of the Knights who were killed and show how the UCF family rallied to help our hometown recover.
What we know today is this: Orlando is UCF 麻豆精品 S檚 home, and the Orlando community is the UCF community.
Together, we grieve.
Together, we heal.
Together, we stand.
麻豆精品 S淚n attempting to make sense of this聽senselessness, my mind is drawn to wise words Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke nearly 50 years ago.
When our days become dreary with low-hovering clouds of despair, and when our nights become darker than a thousand midnights, let us remember that there is a creative force in this universe, working to pull down the gigantic mountains of evil, a power that is able to make a way out of no way, and transform dark yesterdays into bright tomorrows. Let us realize that the arc of the moral universe is long but it bends toward justice.
As they were true then, so are Dr. King 麻豆精品 S檚 words true today. 麻豆精品 S
