Message from the President - February 19, 2021
This past week has been anything but normal for us here in South Texas. The unprecedented winter storm across our state has uniquely disrupted our lives even further and left leaders at every level wondering what went wrong. But, while most of us have had our electricity and internet restored, many of our community members continue to lack food, shelter, water, and/or warmth.
UTRGV Transforming Our World Campus Climate Survey - February 2, 2021
Much can change in a year. And though we are still fighting through the ongoing pandemic, I want to remind you of how important our campus climate and culture continue to be. The pandemic has undoubtedly changed our relationship to campus, which makes assessing where we are now even more critical. One of the simplest and most effective ways to influence UTRGV’s future is to participate in this year’s Campus Climate Survey.
Message from the President: President Biden's Executive Orders - January 27, 2021
During his first days in office, President Biden signed a number of executive actions. While these orders, memorandums, and proclamations will resonate across the country in various ways, some of them will undoubtedly have a more significant impact on our campus community here in the Rio Grande Valley.
Message from the President: WAC Expansion - January 14, 2021
