A message from Chancellor Mitchell will be shared publicly soon, and a link to that message is provided here. He is experiencing mild symptoms, is currently isolated and will be working from home.

Additionally, we ask that you please remain in regular communication with your supervisor and let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
