Dear faculty colleagues,
I really cannot believe we are nearing the end of the year. Events in 2020 have pushed us, challenged us, and let’s be honest, brought a great deal of stress and hardship. It has pushed everyone to step forward to share the burden and meet the challenges.
We’ve accomplished a great deal together. We’ve responded with creativity and resilience in our classes, our labs and our work on campus. I know that there is still a lot of work ahead of us, but I am proud of the positive impact of our collective efforts. I greatly appreciate you.
I wish you and your loved ones a Happy Thanksgiving. Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do.
Enjoy your well-deserved Thanksgiving break.
Best,
Daniel Jaffe
