Inauguration Week: Support and Education

With the current rhetoric around electoral processes causing concern for many, and the changing landscape caused by COVID-19, it is more important than ever that institutions are prepared to communicate updates and effective programming for students, faculty and staff.

The Free Expression committee has collaborated with our partners across campus to create a list of resources and upcoming events before and after Inauguration Day. Please continue to check back for updates.
