We are very saddened by the loss of an incredible coworker, friend and person. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family during this hard time.

Out of respect of Dr. Fayad, all EXSC and PUBH courses have been cancelled today, Friday the 6th. Please refer to email for any specific questions. This does include any classes in the Public Health Research Center, Blatt PE Center, Booker T Washington, and any other location on campus.

If you are needing to talk to someone, the Counseling Center, located in Byrnes on the 7th floor, is holding individual and group sessions.



Thank you for understanding while we cope with the loss of a dear friend from our ASPH family.

GOOD AFTERNOON EXERCISE SCIENCE STUDENTS!!!

Hope you are just having a fabulous week and semester so far!!

We have been so busy with advisement and we are just loving seeing all of your faces!!

PLEASE REMEMBER:
- Come prepared: It is absolutely crucial that you remember to bring your transcript and that you are 10-15 minutes EARLY for your appointment. We have to send you away if not, and what fun is that??

- Not coming to your appointment is not okay: Once you have not shown up for your appointment twice, you WILL be blocked from the advisement sign up website and will have to wait until AFTER registration starts to sign up! If you know 24 hours in advance that you will not be able to make it, cancel! You are taking up some valuable advisement time, friends!!

- Come with a positive attitude: We know that life is stressful, but it's okay to stay smiling!! :) We are here to make your advisement as smooth as possible! Positive attitudes + Positive experience = Positive day/semester!!

As always, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns feel free to stop by the advisement office!! We would love to help you :)

On behalf of the Exercise Science department, and the lovely friends that check you in for advisement;
HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND!!! :)
