UMSU is requesting any staff member stay home for at least 72 hours if they discover they have been exposed to Covid.  You can still be super contagious without being symptomatic or positive. 

For more information about being contagious see here.

If your department had any A1 posters printed for distro during Semester 2, you can come to collect them from the *new* CME office on Level 4 of Building 168. Enjoy a funky memento of your department's achievements this semester, plus use them to liven up your office! 🤩 

*Note that we can't guarantee that we have every single one! Sometimes they do not survive being displayed.

6. Great Feedback — Thanks Kay!

It's lovely when staff are called out for the fabulous work they do. Rebecca Bywater, PRT from UniMelb recently reached out to Carolyn to say what a fabulous job Kay was doing. 

"Some unsolicited feedback on Kay. They are bloody brilliant. I really appreciate their style of engagement. Great at building rapport through empathy ...Just had a pleasant exchange with them, hence this random message. I hope you're having a good weekend!"

Thanks Kay!
