The UNMC community is invited to a virtual town hall Thursday, Aug. 13 to learn more about the steps being taken to reopening campus this fall.
The town hall will run from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. To keep the event secure, attendees may access the webinar link via the UNMC Intranet.
Following brief updates, UNMC Chancellor Jeffrey P. Gold, MD, and participating panelists will take questions from the campus community related to UNMC’s Recovery Implementation Plan, which can be found on UNMC’s coronavirus website. The living document outlines UNMC’s COVID-19 recovery plan including recommendations for effectively returning to campus. It also outlines steps in the development of an Office of Health Security, which will serve to coordinate the ongoing recovery from this pandemic.
Panelists include:
- Ted Cieslak, MD, interim executive director of the Health Security Office;
- Phil Covington, EdD, assistant vice chancellor for student success;
- Dele Davies, MD, senior vice chancellor for academic affairs;
- A representative from the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research; and
- Aileen Warren, associate vice chancellor and executive director, human resources.
