„We are deeply shocked to hear about the violence against peaceful student protesters at our partner University, Sharif University, and other Universities in the country. In our academic and humanitarian understanding we strongly are in opposition to all breaches of human rights and acts of violence.
We stand in solidarity with our colleagues at Sharif University, with all Iranian students, faculty, staff, alumni and citizens.“
