Dear NSM Faculty and Staff,
Thank you for the hard work you did to make our quick transition to online learning, tutoring, advising and mentoring go so smoothly. We successfully made it through the spring semester!
We graduated nearly 800 students in Spring 2020. Here’s a look at the Graduation Celebration Video created by NSM Communications to honor our students whose commencement ceremony was postponed due to COVID-19.
As we prepare for the summer session and continued online instruction, we are also moving toward a return to campus. To date, 211 people have been approved to return to NSM research labs. Those numbers include 96 principal investigators and research faculty, and 115 postdocs, graduate students and undergraduate students.
Stay safe, be well and Go Coogs!
