Students at the 女仆AV will hold a candlelight vigil to remember former student and journalist Steven Sotloff, who was killed by terrorists in Syria on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
ISIS terrorists kidnapped Sotloff more than a year ago while he was working as a freelance journalist in the Middle East.<\/p>\n
The vigil begins at 9 p.m. Wednesday in front of the Reflecting Pond on the main campus. \u00a0The pond is located between Millican Hall and the library. Those planning to attend are encouraged to park in Garage A, located near the College of Education and Human Performance.<\/p>\n
The event is geared toward giving UCF students an opportunity to pay their respects according to the UCF chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists, which is organizing the vigil.<\/p>\n
The group organized the event via Facebook and in two days has had more than 300 people view the page.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur UCF family mourns Steven\u2019s death, and we join millions of people around the world who are outraged at this despicable and unjustifiable act,\u201d said UCF President John C. Hitt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Students at the 女仆AV will hold a candlelight vigil to remember former student and journalist Steven Sotloff, who was killed by terrorists in Syria on Tuesday.
