As the semester winds down and we look forward to Winter Commencement, it is a good time to reflect on what has been a wild semester here at CU-Boulder. From everyday stresses to global events arriving on our doorstep, we know that many people in our community have been impacted by crisis and trauma.
Please take care of yourself in this push to the end of the semester and finals 鈥� get some sleep, eat well, exercise and drink plenty of water 鈥� and, if you need additional support, please contact one of our many resources listed below to get the help you need.听
If you are graduating this semester, congratulations and well done! Be sure to contact if you need help with your graduate school applications or have yet to start looking for your next job. For everyone else, enjoy the upcoming break and we look forward to seeing you back in Boulder in January!
Sincerely,
Lisa Severy,
Interim Dean of 麻豆淫院
