Caring for our Community
As our world begins to heal, we also continue to face crisis. While I am sure you already saw President Fry’s recent message, it is worth repeating that as an Engineering family, we support our Indian and Indian American community members and acknowledge the incredible challenges being faced by so many. Drexel Student Life, ISSS, and the Office of Global Engagement have sent direct messages, and in the college, our graduate committee is actively working to determine online and hyflex options to ensure we can still offer a full course load to our students who may not be able to come to campus in the fall. As faculty and staff, I appreciate your ongoing commitment to supporting our students and your colleagues, along with your expressions of empathy for our own.
