Dear Students and Families:
Although it feels a bit more like winter today, there are now less than 30 days until the end of the spring semester. I hope you spent yesterday’s Wellness Day resting and recharging in anticipation of tackling the final days of this semester.
As we head into another weekend, I write to share with you an overview of some of the great activities happening on and around campus this weekend. Whether it’s indoor group fitness, being outside exploring nature or participating in a virtual Q&A with the creator and star of “Schitt’s Creek” Dan Levy, there really is something for everyone. And, all of these activities are safe, fun and give you the opportunity to try new things!
Weekend Activities: April 22-25
Below, I am including a sampling of activities, events and programming scheduled for this weekend. For a complete listing of events, please check out the University’s events calendar.
Thursday, April 22
Friday, April 23
Saturday, April 24
Sunday, April 25
As a reminder, please submit proof of vaccination at your earliest convenience by visiting the Student Patient Portal. If you received the vaccination on campus, you are not required to submit documentation. Please also remember that once vaccinated, you should continue participating in surveillance testing at the Stadium Testing Center, wearing a mask and maintaining social distance as these are important measures to safeguard our community against the spread of illness.
This time next month, all our students will be going their separate ways for the summer. Let’s make the most of our time together on campus in a safe, healthy and enjoyable manner!
Sincerely,
Robert D. Hradsky, Ed.D.
Vice President for the Student Experience
