A MESSAGE FROM Hedley
I am retiring after 32 years at the University of Connecticut. COVID-19 has made leaving a strange experience but running a half marathon to benefit the UConn Health COVID-19 Rapid Response Fund seems like a great way to go out. Please donate and let me know if you also want to run.
