Good afternoon colleagues and thank you, Alison and Senator Bella Esbeck, for your remarks and updates. I am grateful for the opportunity to address the University Senate during Week 8 of what has been a turbulent term. We have all been navigating challenging actions at the federal level, faculty and student bargaining, and on Monday one of our students was severely injured by a falling tree during the windstorm that moved through campus late in the morning. Our hearts are with this student and her parents during this difficult time.
