Stony Brook University President Maurie McInnis has issued a message praising the “extraordinary response” of faculty and staff to the challenges faced during the coronavirus pandemic. The message reads as follows:
Dear members of the Stony Brook family:
One year ago, our school, community, and world were shaken by the coronavirus pandemic. It was a period of great fear and anxiety; there was still so much we didn’t know about this disease from how it was transmitted to how to best protect ourselves, from all its specific early symptoms to exactly what we’d call it. But in the midst of these extraordinary times, the faculty and staff at Stony Brook have given a truly extraordinary response. You stepped up to maintain our institution’s mission. And now, at the start of March 2021, it is worth reflecting on all we have accomplished together over the past 365 days.
