Greetings, Colleagues!

As we move into our third week of classes, I hope you are healthy and finding ways to be engaged with your students, your faculty and staff colleagues, and your own scholarly and community-based work. 

My title for this week is likely going to be a little puzzling to some of you but I promise to explain it in just a minute.  It was inspired by the growing body of comments I’ve encountered since semester began that basically boil down to: “we’re not really back to normal are we?”
