Message
from the Dean
|
|
"As we get ready to start the Spring semester,
still dealing with some of the challenges imposed by the
pandemic, we move with a renewed sense that the end to these
adversities is on the horizon. We will arrive at this new
normal, better equipped and with a new set of tools.
Let's work together to make this a successful and rewarding
semester."
