Hi everyone,
I hope everyone was able to get out and enjoy the wonderful sun and warmer weather this weekend. Please take a minute to skim the information below so you do not miss out on some fun events and important deadlines.
As we get deeper into the semester, continue to take care of yourself and look out for others. Remember that communication is the key! Engage with your instructors, course assistants and others as needed.
Our weekly advising drop-in times as well as the link to schedule an advising appointment can be found on the Dyson Launchpad.
I hope everyone has a great week ahead!
