“I wish I could take it back. I can’t, and I wish I could take it back. What I said there is something that I’m deeply embarrassed by, and I’m truly regretful. And I know that forgiveness isn’t given, it’s earned, and that’s why I apologized immediately and that’s why I reached out to the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, because I realized that to seek guidance in what I can do in this gap year to right this wrong, and that’s what I’m focused about. I’m focused on school safety and I really want to right this wrong. That’s why I apologized immediately, because it was the right thing to do. That’s why I reached out to the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, because it was the right thing to do.”
