Dear Cinema Studies Community:

I write to share the department's absolute support for our international students.

Since July 6, 2020, the Cinema Studies team has been tracking and supporting the work of the UO administration and other higher education institutions and associations to advocate on behalf of the many students from outside the U.S. who enrich this country, this city, and this school.

While I am glad to share that this policy was just rescinded, I know some of the anxiety caused by proposals like this one may linger. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to help as best we can.

Thanks for being a member of our community. I hope the remainder of your summer is restful.

In solidarity,
professor ovalle.
