Good morning,
I hope you all had a nice weekend and that you’re hanging in there in the midst of everything! This is week 6 of working from home for many of us, and I for one feel like I’m still trying getting the hang of it.
I wanted to check in with you all about your plans for Commencement this spring. I know that you all have made your announcements about your plans for the event (postponing, hybrid approach, etc.), but I know that there’s still much work to be done. Our office shared a toolkit with the campus CEOs a few weeks ago (hopefully this was forwarded on to you all) and I just wanted to check in to offer my support as you continuing your planning. I’m always happy to brainstorm, talk through ideas, offer feedback, etc.
I also wanted to share that WICHE will be holding a webinar on this topic on Thursday from 1:30-2:30 p.m., in case you are interested. Here is the link to register: https://wiche.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_v5UBc0CeQz2C7TmiA89WYA.
Hang in there, and please do not hesitate to reach out if there’s anything I can do to help.
All the best,
Rebecca
