Dear Faculty and Staff,

During these difficult times, our University has rallied together to do what’s best for our students in the face of extremely challenging circumstances.

I want you to know that I see how hard you are working to adjust to a rapidly-changing workplace. You have shown up early, stayed late, worked weekends, remained flexible, acted with urgency, integrity and professionalism … all while dealing with the impacts of the coronavirus in your personal lives, as well.

I cannot say it enough: thank you.

Thank you for your tireless devotion to our students and our mission. Thank you for your caring, commitment and courage in these uncertain times, because it has kept Park afloat. I am so proud to work alongside each of you.

We will likely face more challenges as we figure our way through this new normal, and extending grace and understanding to one another will become very important in the days and months ahead. While facing the unknown is scary, I take comfort in knowing that intelligent, capable and dedicated people continue to make a difference at Park each and every day.

I wish only the best for you and your families. Thank you for all that you do.

Sincerely,

Dr. Gunderson
