Quote of the Week: No Man is an Island!


“The questions are necessary but insufficient. They reflect our helplessness. They are tacitly about placing blame, about distancing ourselves from the moment, about preventing the unpreventable.
The answers, no matter how insightful, cannot begin to heal a community’s loss.
That is now NIU’s tragic burden. That is our burden, too.”
