UCF Spokesman Chad Binette said that UCF will be making grief counselors available for students who need them during a tragic time like this.

“Our UCF family’s thoughts and deepest sympathies are with Kaliegh’s family, friends and sorority sisters. Counselors are available to help students who need assistance during this difficult time,” Binette said.
