President Morehead addresses UGA Alumni and Family amid coronavirus pandemic

As the country and the world copes with the COVID-19 crisis, University of Georgia President Jere Morehead penned an inspiring letter to Bulldog Nation in which he outlined several contributions made by the university, faculty, staff, alumni and students.

Switching 11,000 course sections to online learning to over 37,000 students in mid-semester was a herculean effort. From UGA researchers developing and testing new vaccines and immunotherapies to combat the novel coronavirus to a team of staff and students producing medical face shields for local medical professionals to UGA Campus Kitchen preparing and delivering meals to families in Athens, the UGA community has risen to the occasion during these unprecedented times.
