UB statement regarding the tragic events in Paris

All four UB students studying abroad in Paris are safe and accounted for, as are the two UB students studying in the south of France.

The university made contact with the students overnight and they have been in touch with their families to let them know they are safe and unharmed. We will continue to monitor the situation closely and will remain in contact with our students. 

With the rest of the world, the University at Buffalo community is shocked and saddened by the senseless violence that occurred last night in Paris. Our thoughts are with all of those who have been affected by these terrible events.
