Statement From President Sandra Cassady, Ph.D.
Friday, January 5, 2024
É侫ÊÓƵ Companions,
We recently were made aware that Dr. Mohamed Kohia, who retired from É侫ÊÓƵ in 2023 as professor of physical therapy, is seemingly shown in a video where he is identified as a É侫ÊÓƵ professor and is expressing views on the Oct. 7 attacks in Israel. The University has reason to question whether this video accurately depicts Dr. Kohia’s comments, which are not in alignment with the mission and core values of É侫ÊÓƵ, a Catholic, Jesuit university community that comprises and welcomes people of many faiths. Since Oct. 7, we have joined with people of good will throughout the world who are praying for an end to the violence in the Middle East.
Sandra Cassady, Ph.D.
President
