President Eisgruber's Statement Regarding War in Ukraine

March 3, 2022

Princeton University President Christopher Eisgruber's statement regarding the war in Ukraine is posted here. The University homepage features prominently the response from our community. The School of Public and International Affairs has organized several events that draw on the expertise of our faculty who are well-versed in this region and its complex geopolitical history. These events can be accessed (live or to view recordings) from the school's website here.

My heart goes out to those, on our campus and beyond it, who are personally affected by the war.  The University has reached out to students and staff from Ukraine.  Resources and support services are available from the Davis International Center, Counseling and Psychological Services, and the Office of Religious Life.

The Presidents’ Alliance on Higher Education and Immigration, of which I am a founding member, has called on the Biden Administration to designate Ukraine for Temporary Status Protection (TPS) and announce Special Student Relief for Ukrainian nationals residing or studying in the United States.
