From the Office of the Dean |

|
Greetings, everyone, and welcome to the final CHDCM Dean’s newsletter of the 2024-2025 Academic Year! To many of us in CHDCM, that means wrapping up this semester and preparing for the next….but for others, this is a time of CELEBRATION! For those graduating, this month marks the end of your time on campus—but not the end of your involvement with our community. Instead, it means that you’re taking on a new identity: that of a proud CHDCM alum! I look forward to celebrating with those of you leaving us at commencement, and to hearing all of the many accomplishments that will surely follow your time at The Hall!
|
This last newsletter also marks another ending—the last day of classes! I wish you all well as you work to finish up classes, meet deadlines, and wrap up the academic business of the year. In the midst of all this hectic activity, PLEASE don’t forget to get rest, eat right, and practice self-care—and remember the many resources available on campus, including the priest community, UWill telehealth platform, Counseling and Psychological Services for students, and the Employee Assistance Program for faculty.
|
With that, I encourage you to read on, to see the news and notes from our amazing College and its people. I wish you all as smooth an end of classes as possible, and a warm, happy start to the Summer. See you again in the Fall, when our newsletter will return. And—speaking of next semester—if you are a current CHDCM student and you haven’t registered yet for your classes, now is a great time to do so! As we finish up the finals for spring, don’t miss the chance to add the classes you want and need for the Fall semester!
|
Happy Summer, everybody, and thanks for all you do to make our College, and our community, so special! I’ll look forward to reconvening in August, as we welcome our newest Pirates, and share stories of what you all did over the summer! Be well, again best wishes to you all as you finish the work of the academic year!
