As spring flows into summer and more campus community members get vaccinated, campus activities are returning to normal. Sustainability, Facilities and Safety is preparing for a Return To Better for summer and fall semesters.
Inside Facilities: Jan. - Mar. 2021
Leaving behind a challenging 2020, we entered spring semester with the inauguration of a new US president, new interim leadership in SFS - Nazia Zakir, the return of on-line classes, expanded Covid-19 testing and finally the availability of a vaccine.
Inside Facilities: Sept. - Dec. 2020
What a year it was! A pandemic and personnel changes made for a challenging year but our service prevailed. All Facilities employees should take pride in what they accomplished. Our strive for excellence and our spirit of collaboration provided a safe, productive semester for students, faculty and staff. This issue outlines many of the reasons why teamwork and dedication was integral to our success.
Inside Facilities: May - Aug. 2020
The summer of Covid-19 featured Facilities employees working harder than ever to reconfigure, reschedule and rethink almost every aspect of campus operations to prepare for the return of students. EH&S led the response efforts by ordering and distributing the necessary PPE to keep our work environment safe. Each department adapted to the evolving challenges that arose due to the pandemic.
Inside Facilities: Jan. - April 2020
In mid-March, campus was closed due to the covid-19 pandemic and the majority of employees began to work remotely. Staying focused from home, staff continued to work on strategic planning for the Institute, collaborated with students, and pushed forward on construction projects. Employees also received heaps of praise and appreciation for being on the front lines during a time of crisis, keeping vital campus operations up and running.
