FACULTY NEWS & NOTES

Dear Faculty,

Congratulations on another fine academic year. I am sure you are looking forward to a lighter, simpler summer schedule. I have loved meeting those of you whom I’ve interviewed over the past six months since I took on my role as communications associate, and I look forward to continuing these conversations in the fall. In the meantime, please keep sending me news, stories, quotes, jokes, whatever suits your fancy!

See you at graduation!

All best,

Claire
