Statement from Penn President Amy Gutmann On the Tragedy in Orlando

Every person who cherishes freedom is heartbroken by the senseless and tragic violence that occurred in Orlando. On behalf of the entire Penn community I extend my deepest condolences and sympathies to the families who lost loved ones, and to all those in the LGBT and Hispanic communities who have been so personally devastated by this horrific act of terror. We stand in absolute solidarity with the families and friends of the victims. We will and we must stand together against senseless violence, and we cannot rest until we end it.
