Keeping Bobcats Informed, Oct. 13, 2022

Bobcat Parents & Families,

Another successful Homecoming Week in the books! Thank you to all who were able to travel to campus to join in on the celebration. It was so great to see Bobcats of all generations back on the greens this past weekend, and I look forward to when the time comes for our current students to return to Athens each year to celebrate our community.

Though we are experiencing perfect fall weather this week in Athens, cold weather is approaching. This time of year is more important than ever to stay physically active, not just for mental health, but also for academic success. That gets a little trickier as the seasons start to change, but luckily the University has plenty of options to keep moving. Encourage your student to explore the various , , and that Campus Recreation has to offer.

Kindly,

Kathy A Fahl, MSW

Dean of Students
