The atmosphere on campus has been tense, and many have felt hurt, isolated, and afraid since the start of the Israel-Hamas War. The first step to forgiveness and reconciliation is both simple and difficult, according to campus religious leaders. Just sit together and listen.

Matthew Ichihashi Potts discussed their faiths' approaches to bridging divisions amid anguish and intense disagreement.
