Welcome Back Greyhounds!
We hope you had a fantastic break and that you are ready for another amazing semester! The Spring Semester is extremely busy for many students, so please keep our campus resources in mind if you need support. In addition to our newsletter, the Bridge is a great resource if you are looking for events to attend on campus. Let's finish out this year strong! Good luck hounds!
