Dean’s Message

Dear COE Community,
Welcome back for fall term! The excitement is in the air as we gear up for another year of learning and growth. I look forward to seeing many of you at the Dean's welcome lunch tomorrow, followed by the 2025 Reschly Distinguished Lecture.

As we prepare for the coming year, I'd like to remind everyone of the UO's academic freedom resources available on the Office of the Provost's website<https://provost.uoregon.edu/academic-freedom>. The AAUP also offers several resources that may be of interest, including academic freedom syllabus language<https://www.aaup.org/about/programs/protecting-academic-freedom/center-defense-academic-freedom/academic-freedom-0> and an academic freedom first aid kit<https://www.aaup.org/sites/default/files/2025-07/AAUP%20CDAF%20Academic%20Freedom%20First%20Aid%20Kit.pdf>.

Here's to another great year filled with curiosity, discovery, and connection,
Emily
