Chancellor Riley Shares Grief, Resources Following Recent Mass Shootings

Written By: Terisa Riley

Dear Lions,

The news of the recent mass shootings at a , at a , California, and at an elementary school in , have left me sad, scared, and angry. Frankly, all mass shootings leave me confused, sad, and scared; however, none hit closer to home than those perpetrated in schools. I know people who work at Uvalde Independent School District, and at my former institution of higher education I helped to educate many Uvalde graduates. My heart aches for the students, their parents, and their entire community. Even without any personal connection, I would still remind you that we each have opportunities to make a difference.

  1. Check on people you love and hug them tight. Many people are shaken by these tragedies and need a listening ear and shoulder on which to cry.
  2. Listen for signs of distress which could be indicators of risk鈥攖his includes posts on social media as well as other personal or group communication.
  3. If you see something, say something鈥攊ntervene when necessary by reporting your concerns for someone even if you are unsure whether they are truly at risk. When in doubt, call your local police or religious leader, even if the person does not reside in your community, and
  4. Remember that asking for help does not make you weak: It makes you strong.
