The Daily Campus received emails sent to and from University of Connecticut President Radenka Maric, highlighting concerns of the university’s handling of the Israel and Palestine conflict following the Oct. 7, 2023 attack in Israel.

The emails contain communication between UConn administration documenting questions regarding free speech on campus, plans to raise funds for academic partners in Israel and confirmation that the university was in contact with the FBI regarding surveillance of on-campus activism.

The 670 pages of emails were first obtained by UConn UNCHAIN through the Freedom of Information Act.
