Many of our students and alumni have lost their jobs during the federal shake up. We should remind them that they aren't alone and that we stand with them.
Public servants play a vital role in our communities and governance. The School of Public Service faculty wants to remind our students, alumni, and community that we are here to support and encourage you during these challenging times.
