[Coehd] Impacted members of our COEHD community

Dear COEHD Community: Our hearts go out to our fellow Roadrunners who have been impacted by the devastating tragedy in the Texas hill country. Given the proximity of this catastrophic event, we recognize you or our students might have family, friends, and or loved ones who were affected in some way. For our awareness and to make sure aid is promptly provided, we would appreciate knowing if anyone in COEHD has been directly affected. The dean’s office stands ready to help anyone in distress or needing immediate support. Please be reminded below resources are available by way of counseling, academic support, and financial assistance. Shortly, Academic Affairs will be sharing with deans, chairs, and faculty more detailed information on students impacted. Faculty will be receiving information on those students who have been affected in their classes.
