I hope that you’ve been able to share in the positive happenings around campus lately. With the advent of spring came news of expanded vaccine eligibility, and many in our community have already taken advantage of that opportunity.
March 2021 Provost’s Corner
As we move through the spring semester, we’re facing a renewal of hope for the campus community. Many of you have already been able to receive the COVID-19 vaccine, with many more of you scheduled to do so in the near future.
Women Making It Work
Women’s History Month feels a little different in 2021. This March, we mark the one-year anniversary of the COVID-19 pandemic, which seems to have disproportionately impacted women in the workplace.
Navigating Virtual Higher Education
Over the course of the past year, NC State faculty have had to quickly transition from in-person to online courses, and continue to innovate in online instruction to provide students with the best education possible. That’s why the Office of Faculty Development (OFD) wanted the 2021 Teaching and Learning Symposium to focus on “Celebrating Faculty Success and Resilience.”
Creating Community for Faculty and Staff
In addition to more than 36,000 students, more than 9,600 faculty and staff call NC State home. Creating a sense of community with those kinds of numbers seems daunting, but many campus units and entities work together to make community possible.
SSC Stays the Course
Along with many other campus entities, NC State’s Sensory Service Center (SSC) necessarily pivoted due to the advent of COVID-19 and its impact on the university. Dr. MaryAnne Drake and her team of dedicated staff and graduate students transitioned the center’s operations in a way that allowed for high-quality research and education to continue, seamlessly serving customers and the campus community alike.
