USSU News and Events

The USSU Safewalk program are organizing a Candlelight Vigil (February 15th, 5:30pm - 6pm in the Bowl) for Hamzah Alsharief, who has been missing since December 2011. Whether we know him or not, let us all come together as fellow students and community members, and show our support to Hamzah, his family and friends.

We hope that through this Candlelight Vigil, we are able to create more awareness about Hamzah's disappearance, provide hope and support for Hamzah's family and friends, and finally, to provide students and friends with an opportunity to express their support and concerns.

If possible, please bring a candle.

Everyone is welcome!
