The advising staff would like to remind faculty and students that the last day to WITHDRAW from one or more full semester courses for fall 2021 is Friday, November 12.

A few things you should know about “Withdrawing” from a course include:

·NEVER withdraw from a course without checking with your advisor first.

·Be sure to discuss with Scholarships and Financial Aid the impact withdrawing will have on your scholarships and aid packages.

·Be sure to discuss with University Housing how withdrawing may impact your housing eligibility.

·If your full-time or part-time enrollment is verified to receive discounts on your medical/car insurance or your parents’ health and auto insurance, withdrawing from classes may affect your eligibility for continued discounts.

If you have questions about withdrawing from a course, please stop in and see a member of our advising staff.

The pandemic continues to linger and masks seem a regular accessory to my wardrobe these days. I was asked the other day if I thought COVID will ever completely go away. Sadly, I think it will remain with us for many years to come, but as with other infectious diseases it will fade, as more and more people protect themselves from the disease. The masks will go away and a new normal will emerge. The question however made me think about what this means to the design professions. Fortunately, back on October 22nd, one of our Hyde Lecturers, Jeffrey Hou, gave us a hopeful and interesting perspective on this topic. He posited a few themes with examples of how these new realities have manifested in some of his work with students. More-
