2020 turned out much different than any of us could have ever imagined. You’ve experienced more than your fair share of hardships, both personally and professionally, and navigated through the COVID-19 pandemic, racial injustice, a challenging election season and more.

The end of the fall 2020 semester is drawing near, but there’s still plenty of activity taking place. We’re in the middle of a different, yet quite exciting, Red and White Week. Even with most events being held virtually, the week captures everything our students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends hold dear about NC State.

As we move into another month of online instruction, it is important now more than ever that we find ways to stay connected while we’re apart. Faculty, staff and students are feeling the impacts of being removed from campus both physically and mentally.

Words cannot do justice to what so many of you are experiencing and the way you are feeling in the wake of George Floyd’s death. We want you to know that we see you, we are listening, and are working to find ways to respond that will respect the dignity of Black lives.

While this semester was not one anyone could have anticipated, good things are still happening at NC State. Our students were still able to learn online and make progress toward their degree, and now many of these students can call themselves proud Wolfpack alumni.
