Georgetown SEM

Today is #Juneteenth, a day which celebrates the end of slavery in the US. We hope you join us in taking this time to reflect on what it means to celebrate this holiday & how we might advance racial justice not only at SCS, but also in our everyday lives. bit.ly/35voIjZ

Hoyas, we know the Derek Chauvin trial was difficult for many of us. Dean @kellyotter recently expressed her and the School's commitment to being an inclusive and respectful environment for all people. Please visit this link for her message and resources: bit.ly/3xkLOq7

SCS Hoyas, we have some news about Commencement 2021⬇️

Our message this morning remains true. We stand in solidarity with our AAPI family and mourn these continued hate crimes with you. Our work to dismantle systems of oppression must continue. If you need mental health assistance during this time, visit: bit.ly/2YtxE8j.

We do not make this decision lightly. We know many of us await the day when it is safe to return to campus. We will continue to monitor the changing nature of the pandemic, and regularly assess our operating status. Stay safe, Hoyas. 3/3

Please do not hesitate to reach out to [email protected] or your program advisors with specific questions or concerns. For tuition information, visit: scs.georgetown.edu/admission… 2/3

As many of you have seen in an email from Dean @kellyotter, the School of Continuing Studies has come to the decision to operate the summer semester virtually. The health and safety of our community remains our top priority. 1/3

As a reminder, there are no classes on Monday, February 15 in recognition of President's Day. Enjoy your long weekend, Hoyas!

As we begin another week celebrating #BlackHistoryMonth, we wanted to talk about the recent "Teach the Speech" event as part of Georgetown’s MLK: “Let Freedom Ring!” Initiative. Here, Mike Canter, Senior Associate Dean, shares his reflections after attending the event.

Have a wonderful first day of classes, Hoyas! We have a special message from Dean @kellyotter. Best wishes for this coming semester! #SeekSomethingGreater #HoyaSaxa 🤗

Who else is ready for 2021? 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️We're looking forward to the new year and cannot wait to see you all in 2021! Wishing you and your loved ones a happy and healthy new year.

From Dean @kellyotter, "We have come to the decision to start spring semester courses virtually. We will continue to monitor the changing nature of the pandemic & reassess this position to see if campus could safely move forward with allowing limited co-curricular activities."

This week, @JKralovec shares opportunities for our students that show us "physical distancing need not mean social isolation." Please visit the link below to learn more. As new opportunities arise, we will share them here with you. bit.ly/2S7hxru | #JesuitEducated
