Dear SEHE affiliates,
Just a reminder and a warm invitation to join us at the Latinxs & the
Environment seminar this afternoon (3:30-5, INTN 3023) for a presentation
by Jade Sasser, and/or to gather at the Stable afterward (~5:15) for some
good company in the wake of it all.
Wishing you all well, please take care,
Dana
