All the COVID-19 Emails

As we move into spring break, I’m doing a little electronic “spring cleaning” . We’ve been bombarded with so much information these last few weeks, with much of it important. I don’t know about you, but I definitely cannot keep track of everything. Today’s blog is just an annotated archive of the ASC president emails, and links to a few websites set up in response to the COVID-19 emergency.
