it is just as important to name who radicalized you as it is to perform your recent radicalization. those who radicalized you are the people you know who were saying 5 years ago all the things you’ve just got the courage to say today.

Black students in #UChicago's Class of 2020 should also complete this survey! I'm sorry you can't have a traditional graduation ceremony. But alumnihood can still be lit! Help us make it that way.

Zimmer stated that the goal for UChicago is to open normally in the fall, however it is complicated to deal with all the facilities under UChicago and questions of social distancing. He stated that a decision will be made in June #sgtownhall
