Common Ground promotes a thriving, equitable, and fully-participatory University community deeply engaged with the broader social world.
FYIIn 2020-21, our Spider staff continues our commitment to provide coordinated, caring support for our students. During this uncommon semester where some students are remote and some are on campus, where some offices are staffed in person and others staffed remotely, we collectively commit to the following:
- We will be available and responsive to inquiries and questions.
- We will continue to be caring professionals ready to connect, listen, and offer support.
- We will continue to strive for an inclusive community in which all members can engage meaningfully in institutional life and contribute to a community where all thrive.
