 Subject: MASSMAIL - Follow-up to Weather Incident

Dear Campus Community Members,

This week's blizzard created major challenges for everyone on campus, 
especially for the employees who provide essential and emergency services.

All across campus, you answered the call. You took whatever steps were 
necessary to ensure that critical activities continued - from McKinley 
Health Center to the residence halls, and from research laboratories to 
the power plant. Many of you had to make special arrangements for your 
own families, so you could serve the Illinois family. You worked extended 
hours in extreme weather conditions, and you kept our students safe and 
our facilities and grounds secure. You fed our students, you tended to 
animals, made sure buildings were clean and warm, and roads cleared.

Thank you for your hard work. It's a privilege to work with such 
dedicated colleagues.

With much gratitude,

Bob Easter
Vice President and Chancellor (Interim)
