 Welcome back to Simmons University. We are so excited to have you. We have been planning for months for this time to welcome you back. In addition to welcoming you back, I wanna say thank you. Thank you for last year. I am grateful for our professors who created transformational learning experience. Thank you for our staff for being the infrastructure in front of the scenes and behind the scenes to make the university work. And thank you students for showing up and being the Simmons shark we know you are. Now I have one request when we return to campus that we all practice in the multiple forms what I call everyday leadership. Let's start with health and safety. We have prioritized that and I'm asking you to put an emphasis on it. Wash your hands, use hand sanitizer, bring your mask to campus, and when appropriate try to be distant. But beyond physical well-being, make time for self-care and your emotional and mental well-being. Everyday leadership beyond health, safety and well-being comes in many forms. Show up in campus and be your best self and enjoy this academic year. Think about the importance in how we're all gonna be resilient as everyday leaders and give us grace as we adapt to the new world. Be in community, make new friends, get to know your professors, get to know the Simmons staff team. And then finally think about what you wanna give to the Simmons community. We are a community of learners, scholars, activists and stewards of our planet. So let's get ready for a fun and exciting semester. Welcome back sharks.
