We Need Your Help! Remind Your Students To Check Their UWM Email Regularly

As your students return to alternate instruction next week, we are writing to ask for your help. We know there are many questions and we have been updating UWM's COVID-19 website and FAQs as quickly as answers are available. Please encourage your student to login to their UWM email regularly. They will have messages from their instructors that will be important to review prior to Monday. They should also review each Chancellor email, so they have the most up-to-date information. UWM is using social media to encourage your student to check their email, but we know you can be their best encourager.
We plan to transition to weekly Panther Family News updates to provide updated information, resources and links to assist your student in their continuing education.
