Dear Students,
Today is March 51st.
Just kidding, I know it's April 20th per the Julian calendar, but March seemed like a month that didn't want to end so I've just continued it.
I'm going to keep it short and sweet this week and ask you to check on 5 people. They could be friends, they could be classmates that you haven't talked to since before Spring Break, or new members in your student org. Or even a staff or faculty member you haven't heard from in a while. Whoever they are, see how they're doing, and let them know you care about their wellbeing – then encourage them to check on 5 more people. A quick text or even an old-fashioned phone call can make a huge difference in someone's day. Let's create a web of connection within the college.
I hope you have a wonderful, productive week, and I'll talk to you again next week, on March 58th.
Best,
Dr. Vanden Bout
Joke: A state trooper sees Heisenberg speeding down the highway. He can't get him to pull over so he pulls alongside him and shouts "Do you know how fast you are going?" Heisenberg replies, "No, but I know where I am."
