鈥淯nder Associate Vice Chancellor of Integrity, Safety and Compliance Dan Jones鈥� leadership, the campus has responded admirably to COVID-19 through its emergency management team, but we know that COVID is going to be part of our campus life for the foreseeable future,鈥� said Pat O鈥橰ourke, interim executive vice chancellor and chief operating officer. 鈥淩ather than continuing to task our emergency management team with COVID response, the campus needed to create the Pandemic Response Office to guide our efforts.听
