Welcome back to the spring semester. I hope your break was restful and enjoyable.

As part of our ongoing work to create a university fully focused on students for now and for the future, IUP will have an all-employee event on January 28, “Shaping Tomorrow: Detailing IUP’s Future.”

Daytime classes—any class that has a scheduled start between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.—are canceled on January 28 to provide an opportunity for as many employees as possible to be part of this event.

Late afternoon and evening classes (classes that start at or after 4:00 p.m.) will meet as scheduled.

A number of student leaders are attending this event to represent you during this meeting, and there will also be online opportunities throughout the semester for you to share input into these important conversations about IUP’s future.

 Your questions, comments, and suggestions are also invited as we continue our Conversation Series and informal meetings. You will receive more information about these events from President Driscoll.

If you have any questions, please reach out to your instructors, faculty advisors, or navigators.

Best wishes for a productive and rewarding semester.

Provost Luetkehans
