Dear Â鶹ÊÓƵ Colleagues,

We are pleased to open the new University Club (U-Club) for the fall semester. Over the summer, we put the finishing touches on the U-Club, thanks to the input of many of our colleagues last April and May when we debuted the club for soft openings. Based on your feedback, we are also excited to announce a partnership between the Office of the Provost, Â鶹ÊÓƵ Kitchen, Office of Inclusive Excellence, and Human Resources that will offer special programming for our faculty and staff in the U-Club throughout the semester.ÌýÌý
