A Message on the Violent Conflict in Israel and Gaza

October 9, 2023

Dear Campus Community,

I am horrified by the violence and loss of life that has occurred in Israel and Gaza over the past several days. I mourn for the innocent lives lost and feel deep sadness for their families and loved ones. I especially feel for those in our Cal Poly Pomona community affected by these events and want to reiterate my support for you and your well-being during this challenging time.   

If you need to speak with someone, I urge you to take advantage of our resources. Students can access:     

• Care Center (Building 97, first floor, 909-869-5071 or carecenter@cpp.edu)   
• Counseling and Psychological Services (Building 66, Room 116, 909-869-3220 or caps@cpp.edu)  

Faculty and Staff members in need may seek out resources from CPP MyLifeMatters by Empathia.

Please support those in our community who are affected by these tragic events. The strength of our Bronco family is demonstrated in the ways that we seek and provide help to one another in times like these.
