Many UNO student services continue to offer support over the summer. Remind students that they shouldn’t hesitate to reach out for support.

UNO will onboard 45-50 new faculty this summer. I know you’ll greet them with a friendly smile. I hope you also reflect on all your accomplishments since you went through the onboarding process.

Thank you for making UNO a better place by helping students; advancing science; creating and sharing your art, music, and other talents; serving our community; and being amazing colleagues. I am proud to be your faculty partner. Enjoy your summer.
