UPDATE FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF HAIFA

Liebe, verehrte Mitglieder,

in Sorge um unsere Freunde und unsere Stipendiaten und Stipendiatinnen, ihre Familien in Haifa und mit großem Mitgefühl für die unschuldigen Opfer in Israel und in Libanon, leite ich Ihnen die aktuelle Nachricht unseres neuen Universitätspräsidenten Prof. Gur Alroey weiter:

Office of the President – University of Haifa:

Dear friends, supporters, and partners,

As I write these words, the North of Israel, home to our precious University, is under intense rocket attack. Life across the region is disrupted. We are living in uncertainty, as children and families run for shelters—not knowing what awaits them from moment to moment.

As you are an integral part of the University’s family, I want to share a few updates with you related to the current situation:

The University is adhering closely to the Home Front Command orders to limit large gatherings and stay close to shelters.

We will continue to support our students who are fighting on the frontlines for the safety and future of Israel. Our aim is to offer generous scholarships to as many of these soldiers as possible.

Our faculty will continue to prepare for the start of the school year and the thousands of students that depend upon us for their higher education and social mobility.

I will keep you up to date as the situation unfolds.

With great appreciation for your unwavering support,

Gur Alroey – President, Professor of Israel studies | President, University of Haifa

Ihre Sonja Lahnstein, Vorsitzende des Vorstandes, 25.9.2024
