[bioundgrd] Extended office hours in turbulent times

[Hallie Dowling-Francisco]

Dear students, staff, and faculty,

We recognize there is significant uncertainty about how changes being proposed or enacted by the new administration in Washington will impact our work and our community and how we will respond.  Next week, I will be offering extended office hours for anyone who would like to speak with me or who has questions about potential impacts in the department.  You can also meet with Amy during her office hours, individually or in small groups, if you would like to talk with her. We have more questions than answers at this point, but we are happy to talk and hear your input and concerns. The department leadership remains committed to making MIT Biology a community where outstanding scientists and staff from all backgrounds feel welcome and can contribute their best work.

My office hours will in my office in 68-323A during the following times:
Tuesday 2/4 12pm-3pm
Wednesday 2/5 11am-4pm
Thursday 2/6 9am-2pm

Amy’s office hour sign up can be found here<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Rd7Q4He6WzD9k263dCPR3iHVlZW88GdMNCq0Gv-iauA/edit?gid=0#gid=0>

Please also feel free to reach out if you would like to set up a separate appointment with me in person or via zoom.

Best,
