To our Students, Staff, Faculty Members, Alumni and Friends,
Never before have you all been more important to the School! Thank you for your support, presence, generosity, advice and feedback over the last year. It has been a challenging year, and many of you have experienced real hardship. We are very saddened that some of the people who were among our staff last year are no longer here, as a result of layoffs necessitated by the difficult economic situation. We especially wish them good fortune in the coming year.
I am very grateful that this School has so many people committed to its future. We were heartened by the more than 140 people who participated directly in our reaccreditation site visit last week. Many more helped to prepare the self-study that was a central part of the process and provided information and assistance during the site visit.
I am grateful for the opportunity to lead this wonderful School and to be part of this great university and community. Best wishes to you and your families for a safe, joyful holiday. My thoughts are with faculty, staff, students and others facing illnesses in themselves or family members.
Gratefully,
Barbara
Barbara K. Rimer, Dean
