When a reporter asked her what her response was to Jewish students at USC who claimed they did n’t feel safe, University of Southern California President Carol Folt responded that she felt “awful.”
” You know, I feel really dreadful for every scholar experience like that and I’m trying to do everything I is to come to a quiet resolution”, Folt answered.
” They just robbed steel walls from school and they’re building a barrier, and you’re simply letting this happen,” you say? the writer asked.
