Dear students,
As another semester ends, and for some of you this will be your last semester at ¶¶Òõ̽̽, I want to wish you a successful finals week and encourage you to take care of yourself during these stressful times. It has been a privilege to get to know so many of you, to learn from you, and to witness your growth.
I know this has been a difficult year to navigate amid the vast conflict, sadness, and loss for so many at home and abroad. Your faculty and staff are here to give you the support you may need. I encourage you to continue to learn about yourself, explore the possibilities for learning new things, and challenge yourself to find just the right path for you.
For our returning students, I wish you a restful summer filled with time to connect with family and friends. Amid the fun, take time to continue crafting your Catamount Experience. Use summer recess to plan for the academic and co-curricular opportunities that will create a meaningful university experience.
For our graduates, I wish you a life full of welcome surprises and the fulfillment of doing something that drives your passion. I look forward to seeing you at Commencement!
Be well Catamounts,
Provost Patty Prelock
