Since our school closure, this is the first step in our attempts to connect with students and a foundational step towards being able to connect students with their class instructors. If a student is unable to join the meeting with their Advisory group on Wednesday, they should attempt to connect with their Advisor individually (ASAP). This will also be a first step in identifying and addressing issues for students that might have trouble or are unable to connect digitally
