President Jarrell Responds to Riot in Washington, D.C.
What follows is an excerpt from a letter to the UMB community from University President Bruce E. Jarrell, MD, FACS:
"The events in Washington, D.C., have made it very difficult to focus on things related to my job as president of the Íøºì±¬ÁÏ, Baltimore, in spite of the pandemic, but they also have allowed me to reflect quite a lot and gain perspective. ... What I have seen is unthinkable to me as an American. ... This is not my idea of democracy. I will not forget these feelings and the reality that goes with them."
