Hundreds of students from across campus came together last night for a vigil on McKeldin Mall honoring the victims of Saturday's mass shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. At the event organized by Maryland Hillel, students with ties to the synagogue shared their stories and asked for prayers for peace and for the families of those affected.
