Message from Dean Walker
Welcome to the spring term! I hope that the last week has been a chance to rest, relax and recharge. As we begin this new term, I find myself thinking back to one year ago, when we began our spring term remotely, uncertain of what lay ahead. We have embraced new ways of learning, working and socializing. And through it all, we have shown remarkable resilience, facing each new challenge with the creativity and persistence that engineers are known for. As we begin this new term, let us do so with hope — hope for a successful spring, hope for our seniors as they embark on their final term as undergraduates, and hope for brighter days ahead.
