We are pleased to announce a new, voluntary leave-sharing benefit for DU employees that was initiated by the Staff Advisory Council (SAC) and has been in development for quite some time.
I want to provide updates on five important topics: the state of fiscal year 2020, summer 2020, fall 2020, a preview of the work that needs to be done for fiscal year 2021, and the formation of six important University task forces and a Student Advisory Board that will help us shape the immediate and longer-term future for DU.
In this critical time for higher education and the economy, I am writing to let you know that we have been working closely with the government officials who are entrusted with deciding how to allocate COVID-19 emergency resources that could potentially benefit higher education institutions, including the ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥.
During these extraordinary times, when each day brings another unforeseen challenge, it is critical to stay focused on our mission, our visionÌýandÌýour principles. Today the issue is a modified Pass/Fail option for our students and the principle is equity.
