Dear colleagues,

As I kick off my first official day here at UMD, I am pleased to share this greeting with you. Thank you for the warm welcome to Duluth as I settle into this role and new community. I look forward to meeting each of you and learning more about all things UMD.

I hope you are all enjoying your summer thus far and I am looking forward to our work together.

Best,

Charles Nies
