To the Campus Community:

The annual fall Convocation will take place on Wednesday, August 25 at 9:30 a.m. in the Roosevelt Hall Little Theatre. The event will be in-person as well as live-streamed. To attend in person, you will be required to upload proof of vaccination using the Registration Form. Attendees will also be required to wear a mask. Seating will be limited to the first 325 vaccinated registrants. Due to the ever changing environment this plan is SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

During Convocation, I will report on important campus developments, including our extraordinary successes and the challenges ahead. We will also be recognizing the achievements of some of our outstanding colleagues.

A continental breakfast will be available beginning at 8:30 a.m. on the Great Lawn outside Roosevelt Hall to all members of the campus community.

In addition, I am pleased to announce that an Employee Appreciation BBQ will take place from noon to 2:00 p.m. on the Great Lawn outside Roosevelt Hall. All employees are welcome. The College, UUP, and CSEA are jointly sponsoring this event. A DJ will be on hand and Aramark staff will be serving BBQ favorites and ice cream.

RSVP for all three Convocation events by Friday, August 20.

I look forward to seeing you at Convocation, the Employee Appreciation BBQ, and around campus this fall.

President
