Dear Campus Colleagues,
Transitioning to a new administration involves a period of uncertainty, including temporary pauses in activities. My office and others on campus have heard questions from our UW–Madison community about the impact of recent executive orders and a communications pause at several federal agencies. At this point, changes to research and sponsored programs at UW–Madison, and the impact on our partners, remain unclear and are evolving rapidly.
Chancellor Mnookin has convened a group to track and respond to the latest executive orders and congressional activity. The group is led by the Office of University Relations and includes leadership from across campus, including Strategic Communication, the Provost’s Office, the Office of Legal Affairs, the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research and others.
