A HUGE thank you to everyone for a great opening to the winter quarter. Wildcat<br />
Wellness showed us, once again, what we can do when we work as an effective<br />
team. I am grateful to everyone for their patience and adaptability during this<br />
unusual time for us all. Recently I pulled out a book from my past on how to<br />
adapt to change “Who Moved My Cheese?” by Spencer Johnson and the lessons<br />
learned there are true today: Change Happens, Anticipate Change, Monitor<br />
Change, Adapt to Change Quickly, Change, Enjoy the Change! And…. Be Ready to<br />
Quickly Change Again and Again… It’s a great book with some great ideas.<br />

This is not just a team; this is a family to me. Words will not be enough to tell you<br />
how grateful I am to have a fantastic team. I love working with this team. Thank<br />
you, everyone for a smooth opening this winter quarter. We were able to open<br />
Lisa’s Cafe, Fran’s Cafe, MOD Pizza, Patty2, Viet Nom Nom, The Norris Market,<br />
and Starbucks at this time. I appreciate everyone's patience as we look forward to<br />
the day we can pen up our remaining locations. Please remember to wear your<br />
facemask everywhere on campus.<br />

We have an awesome team and I’m so thankful to work with all of you:<br />
from our chefs and culinary and food service team to sustainability,<br />
technology and marketing leads. You are here because you love the<br />
students and want to keep them safe, well fed, with delicious, nourishing<br />
food, and happy. I speak with students everyday. They tell me they like the<br />
food (they are so happy to see salads!!) and they appreciate all you’ve<br />
done for them. They are glad to be back on campus to see their friends<br />
and to see all of you in their favorite dining commons. Keep up the great<br />
work, providing Pure Eats meals to students with food allergies,<br />
plant-forward dishes from Rooted and Kosher and Halal meals. This<br />
attention to detail (with care in the recipes and signage) makes<br />
Northwestern University a top school for academics and food. Keep<br />
wearing your masks and staying safe and keeping your colleagues and the<br />
students safe. Also make sure to check out our NU wellness and<br />
