NOVEMBER 2016
As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, followed quickly by the end-of-semester bustle; winter break; and new year startup, we want to take a moment to thank each and everyone of you for your contributions to OUE and to Georgia Tech. The work each of us does in support of our students and their education cannot be overstated. Over the next few weeks, please take time to enjoy the holiday season with your friends, family, and loved ones. We look forward to gathering in January to celebrate a new year and new semester. To that end, please make sure to mark your calendars for our OUE Spring Town Hall meeting on Monday January 23, 3:30-5:00.
