Return to NIU


I will be returning to work on Tuesday. We will be receiving training so that we will be prepared to handle some situations with students and to help our students cope with this tragedy. Classes will begin the following week. I went back on campus today for the first time since last Thursday. It just feels sad. Our campus is mourning and still trying to understand how this could happen at a place like NIU or anywhere else. The outpouring of love and support from friends, neighbors and strangers has been incredible. Words cannot express the sincere thanks and gratitude that I and the campus feels for all the prayers and encouragement that you have given. Thank you. The picture was taken by Jeff on Saturday morning. He has been very effected by this as well and was moved by this scene.
