The International College of the Cayman Islands (ICCI) has issued a statement saying the general public is NOT invited to listen to the presentation to be given tonight (4) by local activist, Sandra Catron.

Catron’s presentation is to be on Child Sexual Abuse in the Cayman Island, but unless you are a UCCI student or a faculty member you won’t be allowed in.

Dr Tasha Embanks Garcia President, ICCI said in a statement, “Neither the general public nor the media is invited as Ms Catron’s visit is not a public forum it is a discussion that will take place within the context of a course that students have enrolled in for the Summer quarter.”

Listing ‘safety concerns’ Garcia said the subject was controversial and an invitation to the general public could “attract people who are not intent in engaging in healthy and constructive dialogue” and “One of our primary responsibilities is to ensure that our students and staff study and work in a safe environment.”

“The challenge with not vetting individuals that are invited but rather extending the invitation to the public as a whole is that we could potentially put our students and staff at risk,” she added.
