Hello alumni and friends of the department--if you are unable to attend the May 9 Farewell Gathering but would like to send a short (1-2 minutes or even less) reflection/remembrance/tribute video, please send it to me, Suzi Nelson, at [email protected] by one week from today, Friday, May 3. Please send any written reflections by that date as well. Videos can be recorded on your phone and sent with a vimeo or youtube link or any other way you can send it that would be easy for a non-techy like me to open. Thank you, thank you! ~ Suzi
