To the Faculty • Every day each of you contribute to the SCIS-HIS curriculum through the opportunities you provide, the assessments that you make, and the feedback that you share. • Sometimes in our busy world words of appreciation fall through the cracks of time and remain left unsaid. Not today. • Today we are able to build upon the collective talents, energy, and time invested by SCIS-HIS faculties, past and present. • To you all we say THANK YOU.
