So I do think universities have to be careful. I do think precautions have to be taken. The President has asked for increased security for cabinet and for staff, and has actually encouraged Congress to increase their own security. I think we have to be prudent at that. But just like after 9 11, when President Bush came out and said, we cannot stay at home, we cannot cower, we cannot huddle down, we just have to be vigilantly moving forward. (03:39–03:48)
