Please join us for a virtual Loan Repayment Strategies Workshop on Wednesday, May 6, Noon–1:00 p.m. The best way to succeed with loan repayment is to develop a strategy that will work with your current financial situation as well as your long-term financial goals. This session is designed to help you get organized and begin developing a loan repayment strategy before it’s time to start repaying.

(3) Tell the Library What You Need (Faculty)
From Jessica Bell, Office of the Provost
The library is putting out a call to faculty to let us know about new information needs in this new world of online teaching. We are currently trialing several collections of videos, case studies, and interactive applications to support teaching anatomy and clinical skills and would love to have your input about those resources as well as suggestions for others. Please visit our
Free Trials page and be in touch to let us know what else you might need.

(7) Summer Fridays Reminder (Faculty & Staff)
From Liz Pipes, Office of the President
As a reminder, summer Fridays begin on Friday, June 19, and run through Friday, August 14. Faculty and staff will be expected to work regular hours Monday through Thursday. In general, faculty and staff will not be expected to work on the designated Fridays during this period (June 19, June 26, July 10, July 17, July 24, July 31, August 7, and August 14), and will not be expected to use vacation days or earned time for the eight Fridays when the Institute offices will close. Employees who are less than full-time will be expected to work 80% of their usual weekly hours and should arrange their summer schedule with their supervisor. In 2020, July 3 is a holiday, so employees are expected to use earned time.
