"We were all shocked at the senseless violence that reached a community college campus last week.

The #IamUCC hashtag has been established for individuals who wish to show encouragement via social media to our Umpqua community college colleagues, who are working tirelessly at the UCC campus.
Let’s show Umpqua that we stand with them as they begin the process of healing their campus community.
