From the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs
Posted: Monday, August 18, 2025Lunch with the Provost – An Open Invitation
As part of my ongoing commitment to open dialogue and community engagement, I invite you to join me for informal lunch hours in the Dining Hall from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM on the following Fridays:
- September 5
- October 3
- November 7
- December 5
Thanks to the support of Chartwells, lunch will be available at a reduced rate of $7 per person. Please note that you are responsible for the cost of your own meal.
I will be seated with my laptop at a table in the Bengal Kitchen, and members of the campus community are welcome to join me at any time during the lunch period. This is not a formal event—there will be no presentations or structured agenda. Rather, it is an opportunity to engage in conversation, share ideas, express concerns, or simply enjoy one another’s company in a relaxed setting.
I look forward to connecting with many of you throughout the semester.
