Nearly three weeks after an attack at the University of Waterloo sent three people to hospital, questions remain about the university’s response.
Police believe the triple stabbing during a gender studies class on June 28 was hate-motivated.
On Monday, the school held seminars to check in with students and staff in the wake of the attack.
The sessions, which were closed to the public and media, gave attendees the opportunity to voice questions or concerns to university administration.
“As is normal after a horrific event like this, we have to take a minute to reflect and learn lessons,” said Nick Manning, associate vice-president of communications at the university, speaking following the session with staff.
“We don't have all of the answers right now, but we're starting to understand more about what happened, to make some progress and to address the fears and concerns that people have."
But many of the people CTV News spoke to who attended the seminars gave the university a harsh grade.
