As we conclude our semester, we continue to experience and seek to acknowledge the many ways that the pandemic has placed sustained stress on the mental and physical health of our community. The intensity of our communal experience calls for action out of the ordinary to provide a change in pace and time for relief. Time is simultaneously among the most valued and the scarcest of elements of the academic experience, and the action detailed below seeks to institute a demonstrable change of pace for each of us to advance our well-being within our work — a moment to breathe in our hectic schedules.
