Dear students and colleagues
July is always a month of anticipation and a time of new beginnings with Commencement, Orientation, and the build-up to the start of Semester 1 in August. I had the pleasure of attending the Freshmen Welcome on 21 July, where we welcomed over 600 new students to CDE. Ā
The faculty and current students were there to welcome the new students and help them navigate through our college curriculum, how to chart their own learning path, the resources they need to be familiar with, Clubs they should join, and so much more.Ā Ā
We shared with them our hope that they would participate fully in the richness of the student life scene in CDE, form lasting friendships, the importance of student well-being and reassured them that the CDE community would provide ample support throughout their academic journey.Ā Ā
As we charge ahead into the new semester, this is also a message that I would like all students and staff to take to heart, the importance of ensuring your own personal well-being, both physical and mental, and connecting with those around you in meaningful ways.Ā
