Former U.S. Ambassador to China and Russia Jon Huntsman reportedly informed the University of Pennsylvania that his foundation would no longer donate to the school over the institution's response to the terrorist attacks against Israel.
In the wake of the attacks, student groups at several major universities have issued statements supporting Hamas and blaming Israel for the attacks. In his email to Magill, Huntsman said the university had been silent in response to the attacks and that he and his family would no longer support it. Magill and Provost John Jackson released a statement on Oct. 10, three days after the initial attacks, which said the university was"devastated by the horrific assault on Israel by Hamas that targeted civilians."
