Dear IS PhD Students, If you subscribe to the main SIS listserv, then you would have already received some of this information, but I want to make sure everyone is aware of these upcoming sessions. I also want to make sure you know that we are here to help you. We know you are likely experiencing many disruptions and uncertainties in your life as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We have scheduled several online sessions to keep the lines of communication open with you: * Virtual Office Hours. On Sunday, March 22nd from 5:30-6:30 p.m. EDT, Dr. Fleming-May, Tanya Arnold and I will hold virtual office hours where you can Zoom in and have a chat with us. This is a drop-in session (just like “real” office hours) without a formal program, so stop-by when you can: https://tennessee.zoom.us/j/8659742148 * Virtual Town Hall. We invite all members of our community to attend this session on Sunday, March 29th from 5:30-6:30 p.m. EDT. At this meeting, we will share information, take your questions and listen to your feedback and concerns. Zoom in here: https://tennessee.zoom.us/j/8659742148 For those of you who are teaching, we have also scheduled a virtual office hours session tomorrow (Thursday, 3/18) from 5:30-6:30 p.m. EDT with our lecturers in the same Zoom room mentioned above. The SIS administration and faculty encourage you to email us at any time if you need assistance or have questions. We are in unchartered territory and we will do everything we can to support you. Stay safe and healthy, Diane P.S.
