<p class="MsoNormal">As many of you know, the annual <a href="https://ducksgive.uoregon.edu/giving-day/56968/department/56972">
Ducks Give</a> campaign is tomorrow – May 12<sup>th</sup>, 2022. We hope this campaign
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnJIWGxtXYw">inspires you</a> and other members of our community to give back to the COE in support of student scholarships in a number of programs, services in the HEDCO clinic, and so much more. I am grateful to be
 working with an amazing development team led by Kristi Schneider with support from Andrea Olson and Celeste Christie, and we are hard at work engaging with our alumni and friends of the COE in partnership with you. Among other things we are seeking endowments
 for programs in our COE that support persistently underrepresented students, and are looking for ways that the passion of our donor community can transform the work we do. Ultimately philanthropy matters because it allows us to be more equitable and just in
 our recruitment and student training, and provides opportunities for community partnerships, clinical services, and research that would not be possible without the generous support of our donors. Last week we met with COE Advisory Council, a group of established
 donors who work with the COE in fundraising and philanthropic efforts. Collectively this group of committed and engaged people have contributed millions to our COE to support students, faculty, services, and facilities. The chair of this group, Bart Rickett
 (CEO of the Oregon Division of Lease Crutcher Lewis) will be joining us for our June faculty meeting for a few minutes to discuss some exciting structural changes we have made to this group to ensure more representation of our community and enhance our DEI
 efforts. I’m grateful for the leadership Kristi Schneider and team has demonstrated in our development efforts and can’t wait to share more about our work. For now, I would like to express my appreciation to each of you – faculty and staff – who make this
 COE special. I am inspired by you. Thank you for allowing me to step into the role of the interim dean and serve you.
