Dawn greetings
August 12, 2021 |
As the sun sets on the summer, the dawn of the new academic year rises.I hope that the past months have brought you a mix of good work, time with friends and family, and well-deserved rest.
We have weathered quite a season together.
The arrival of our new students this week restored the campus's vitality, and I look forward to welcoming all of you as well -- especially those of you joining our community for the first time.
Fresh off my own vacation, I look forward to this year with hope and anticipation. The pandemic continues, to be sure, along with accompanying uncertainty and anxiety.
Yet as for me, I will wear a broad smile beneath my mask.
For we have many reasons to be hopeful, not least as the upcoming inauguration of Dr. Hanycz, our university's new president.
We will walk through the days and months ahead together. And for that, especially, I am thankful.
