coe-staff: The Weekly Vol. 5 #3

[Laura Lee McIntyre]

Dear COE community,

Campus is bustling and we are seeing an uptick in activities in the COE, on campus, and in the broader community. I continue to be energized by the scope of our work in the COE and our faculty and staff commitment to supporting our students and engaging fully with teaching, research, and leadership, and service. Please read all the way through…there is so much in today’s Weekly!

Thank you for being part of our COE community. I hope to see many of you at our faculty/staff meeting on Friday!

Warmly,
Laura Lee

Reminder to Faculty about UO Observed Holidays

Just a friendly reminder that classes can't be scheduled on 11/10, 11/23, and 11/24, and makeup sessions (whether in-person or remote) also can't be scheduled.

Here’s the 5-year academic calendar<https://registrar.uoregon.edu/calendars/academic/five-year>.



Safety Reminders: In a Friday September 29th email time stamped around 3:20, the UO sent an email reminder about the safety features available on campus. We hope you’ll review the details and resources available here https://safety.uoregon.edu/. Your safety is important to us!
