 Greetings. As we navigate the many challenges of recent months, and those to come, it is important that we take time to recognize and celebrate the achievement of our community. We innovated, we cooperated, and we put in a lot of hard work. And we successfully completed the spring semester. Our graduating students were able to mark their achievement with an online celebration. We will follow it up with an in-person ceremony as soon as circumstances allow. And with your input, we established a framework for our strategic imperatives with the visioning statement we call amplifying our impact. Key among these imperatives are our research activities. The research we conduct is inherent to so much of what makes UVM a world-class institution. From providing an excellent hands-on student experience to discoveries that move society forward and demonstrate the full meaning of our land-grant mission. The switch to remote instruction this past semester was necessitated by the COVID pandemic, and it was as difficult as it was abrupt. But we were able to continue a significant portion of the essential research activity, and we should be proud of that. In fact, some of our research was directed towards solutions to help us fight and mitigate the threat of COVID-19. The innovation now known as the Vermontilator is a perfect example, and it promises to have significant application beyond this pandemic. Our faculty and researchers have swung into action on many of the fronts. Our outdoor research focused on forests, plants, agriculture and animals began to pick up almost a month ago. And now that we have more experience with taking appropriate precautions, we can begin to move forward in other areas as well. I'm pleased to share that many of our labs, including those assessed as non-essential when the shutdown first hit, are now operating. Around two-thirds of our campus labs are fully operational, and more than 80% of our research capacity will soon be up and running across the entire university. This includes lake, water and environmental research, as well as in-person clinical and biomedical research. This has been painstaking work. I'm thankful to the faculty, staff and administrators who have helped put together customized safety plans that align with state and federal mandates, and to the students who have partnered with them. Most of all, I'm grateful to our entire community for providing the support that sustains our university and propels the work we do. None of this is easy, but it's important, and it is necessary. It is also inherent to who we are and what we stand for as an institution. I'm looking forward to our future discoveries at UVM and the impact they will have on our communities, our nation and around the world.
