3. President's Office Hours on Wednesday, September 3
President Leebron will hold office hours on Wednesday, September 3, from 300 pm to 4:00 pm in his office on the 4th Floor of Allen Center. No appointments are necessary. This is a way for students to convey concerns, ask questions, or just engage President Leebron in conversation.
The office hours will be conducted with an "open door" approach, allowing as many students to come as will fit in the president's office. Thus, it is not the appropriate forum for private, individual problems that are appropriately handled in the first instance by other university officials.
The link to the office hour schedule is:
