As we wait for Chancellor Christ’s plan to deal with our campus deficit of $340 million, we would like to congratulate one and all for making the best of very challenging conditions. Collectively – students, staff, instructors and administrators – we have somehow weathered learning and teaching at a distance, often making great sacrifices and suffering considerable hardship. It looks like we will have to call on our reserves of resilience and creativity for another semester, so we’d better get a rest over the break!
