Dear COE Community,
Welcome to Fall! Many of us have been around over the summer, but for faculty who have been away, we’re excited to have you back. We have a lot going on as we prepare to welcome students to campus next week. Please read on for announcements and updates. In particular, please mark your calendars for the Reschly Distinguished Lecture, the Dean’s Welcome Luncheon, the Fall Faculty/Staff Meeting, and if you’re new, our brand new “Year of Welcome” onboarding program that the College of Education is rolling out. We’re glad you’re here and each of you makes our community special.
I look forward to connecting with you soon and providing more updates and information next week when we start our “Weekly” email newsletter series.
Warmly,
Laura Lee
