On May 12, the Management addressed the Sapir Community:

Dear Students and Staff,

We hope that you and your loved ones are well, safe and secure. 
All of us are experiencing challenging times, from the north of the country to the south and in particular the western Negev and Gaza Envelope communities. 

Sapir has always been an open academic home that provides accessible and high-level college education to all segments of Israeli society. As an academic, cultural and socio-economic resource for the entire region, we believe in academic excellence out of solidarity, fraternity and true partnership. Even in these difficult days of violence and rocket fire, we remain committed to these objectives. 

The country is celebrating the Eid al-Fitr and Shavuot holidays. Eid al-Fitr is a time of forgiveness, peace and goodwill – a time to give charity, visit with relatives and resolve disputes. The Book of Ruth, which is read on the Shavuot holiday, emphasizes the importance of openness of thought, greatness of heart and acceptance of the other. 

In the spirit of these two special holidays, we long for the end of violence and for the return of the days of sanity, peace, security, good health, and prosperity.

All the best,

Shai Feldman
President		 Nir Kedar
Associate President		 Orna Gigi
CEO
