Dear Students and Families:
With less than two weeks left in the academic year, this will be my last weekend preview message. As we head into finals week, this is an important time to remember to take study breaks and practice self-care. There are a host of end-of-semester destress activities this week and next, including the return of in-person pet therapy. I encourage you to check out the sampling of weekend activities below for opportunities to get outdoors, have fun and destress.
Thursday, May 13
Friday, May 14
Saturday, May 15
Sunday, May 16
As many of you prepare to depart campus, I also want to share a few reminders to keep our campus community healthy and well in these remaining days and weeks:
After a year unlike any other, thank you for doing your part and making the most of all the events, programs and activities available this year. To our graduating seniors and families, I hope you enjoy the Commencement activities next weekend. I wish you all the best as you begin the next phase of your careers as Orange alumni. To our returning students and families, we look forward to seeing you next fall. Please be sure to check your email regularly, as well as visit the Stay Safe website, for the latest information from the University.
Be well, stay safe and enjoy the summer!
Sincerely,
Robert D. Hradsky, Ed.D.
