I received the email below from the Office of the Dean of Students yesterday and wanted to share it with parents and families in the hope that you will encourage your students to attend this event. One of the highest goals of university life is […]
It’s a beautiful August day on campus, Deac families. It’s slightly cooler than late August normally is – my weather app says 77 degrees as of almost 1:30, with an expected high of 83. It is sunny and bright with some scattered clouds. You can check out […]
