Dear William Paterson Community,

As we launch the Fall semester here at William Paterson, I am pleased to share with you this special Welcome Back! video message. 
In addition, please know that, now more than ever, it is important that we take care of ourselves, take care of each other, and stay connected. There are many great ways to do this, including the Corq smartphone app and Pioneer Life website. I encourage students to join me for Pizza With the President and faculty and staff for First Thursdays. And everyone is welcome at my open Office Hours, which I hold throughout the semester.

These are all great venues for connecting with fellow students and colleagues, as well as for letting me know what’s on your mind. I will also continue to update you about important University developments by email every Monday and at other times, as appropriate. So make it a point to regularly check your email. You can see some of the things I’m up to on campus by following me on Instagram, @WPUNJPresident, and you can always email me at President@WPUNJ.edu.

Thanks, and have a great semester!
Sincerely,

Richard J. Helldobler, Ph.D.
President
