Dear Colleagues,
The events this past week in our country have been heart breaking and stressful. Please know that we are here for you to lend care and support as you need it. Do not hesitate to reach out to us.
Our organization will continue to highly prioritize important core values of diversity, inclusion and equity along with the mental/emotional health and well-being, and safety of our students, faculty and staff across the United States. Our Universities and communities must be united and work together with a sense of urgency to generate solutions that will result in a more just and equitable society. Thank you for all you are doing to create a healthy world for all.
