Students: This is Your Commission

Our calling in this season is unexpected. I offer some words for the road ahead and thanks for your quick action.

As an addendum to my video, be sure to read reputable news sources from CDC, NYT, and the like. They’re offering some of the best resources for how to “flatten the curve,” prepare for self-isolation, and social distancing.

Be smart. Be safe. And look beyond your own needs and towards that of your neighbor.

I love you all.
