"Ten minutes later, my phone was flooded with texts asking if I was safe/okay," Kargman told the AJC. "I was able to text my mom and a few friends back but my phone immediately died and I was left in the dark."
Since the attacks, Kargman and her parents have been in contact with Emory's Center for International Programs Abroad she said in a message to the AJC.
“Communication with Atlanta has been amazing,” she said.
Adding that she’s received emails from my CIPA staffers and other concerned professors, some whom she’s never even met. Emory continues to send her information throughout the weekend about resources to get updates and how to stay safe.
“I have felt the desire to come home and just to feel like I am in a safe place again, but simultaneously I want to stand by Paris and stand against attacks like this," Kargman said. "The best way to do it is to stay in Paris."
