Whether demonstrating newly learned skills or simply showing off, “look at me,” is a phrase children use often. Though I don’t think individuals outgrow the desire to be seen and understood, I’ve often seen higher education institutions shy away from the spotlight and even boast about their best-kept secrets.
As the pandemic impacts our friends, families, and the world, we must work to protect the health and safety of our campus and the surrounding communities. We understand that this new way of living, learning, and engaging is not what you had hoped or envisioned for your higher education experience. Your strength of character and resilience have been profound in navigating this time of disappointment, challenges, and fear.
We are wholly committed to providing our students with a meaningful hybrid curricular and co-curricular experience that includes living on campus and in nearby University-run housing. A critical part of our plan is #DUYourPart, a campaign that provides clear guidelines for healthy and safe behaviors on and off campus, including the requirement that our students agree to comply with state, local and University guidelines.
It’s been a year since I began leading the Division of Marketing & Communications (MarComm) and I’m pleased to share some insight into the team—who we are, what we do and why we do it.
