Return to Learn: Graduate and Professional Student Town Hall
In preparing for the Fall 2020 Quarter, we plan to welcome back students, faculty and staff through an incremental repopulation of campus through a program called Return to Learn. I understand that there are many questions surrounding this program and invite you to join me and Quynh Nguyen, President of the Graduate Student Association, on Thursday, August 6, from 4:30–5:30 p.m., for a Return to Learn town hall designed specifically for graduate and professional students. A panel of campus leaders has been identified to share updates and address questions related to university operations during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The graduate and professional student town hall will feature a Q&A session moderated by Ebonee Williams, Director of Virtual Experience and Peer Engagement Initiatives for Student Affairs, with the following panelists joining us to answer questions from students:
- Mary Lillis Allen, Director of Graduate Academic Affairs
- April Bjornsen, Assistant Dean of Graduate Student Affairs and Admissions
