Dear Students and Families:
The spring semester is officially underway! Over the last several months, our community has worked hard to prepare a full slate of events, activities and social opportunities for our students to enjoy.
Weekend Activities: Feb. 11-Feb. 14
As I did last semester, every week I will send an email with a list of events happening that weekend. These activities comply with public health directives but still offer you the opportunity to socialize with and meet new friends. For a complete listing of events, please check out the University’s events calendar.
Thursday, Feb. 11
Friday, Feb. 12
Saturday, Feb. 13
Sunday, Feb. 14
Stay Safe. Stay Healthy. Do Your Part.
There is nothing we want more than for our students to have a rewarding and enjoyable experience this semester. But I cannot stress enough how important it is to hold ourselves and each other accountable. As we head into our first full weekend of the semester, I implore you to take these simple actions to keep yourself and those around you safe and healthy:
This semester, like last semester, will present challenges and will demand the very best of each of us. We’ve all had to create new ways to safely socialize, meet new people and engage with familiar faces. I hope you will take advantage of all our campus and surrounding community has to offer by getting involved and perhaps trying something new or outside your comfort zone! Please continue to take care of yourself and each other.
Sincerely,
Robert D. Hradsky, Ed.D.
