Colleagues,
I hope everyone enjoyed a restful and restorative fall break and had an opportunity to recharge as we move into the second half of the semester. I would like to call attention to two events you might add to your calendar. The first is part of our ongoing commitment to campus safety and preparedness. William & Mary Police Department is hosting Active Shooter & Casualty Care Training on Oct. 13 and 14. Registration is required. The second is our ongoing AI readiness series—AI Fridays. The second installment—What Changes and What Must Endure—is Friday, Oct. 16.
