HDAE Workers Shift Gears to Support the Campus COVID-19 Response
COVID-19 was declared a pandemic in early 2020, and as businesses, corporations, and universities shuttered their doors and offered online options, individuals at all levels of organizations were faced with new challenges. This was a novel event, requiring ingenuity and resourcefulness to strategically create organizational structure and a culture of resilience in uncertain times.

CONGRATULATIONS! A few HDAE Team Members’ families have grown: Bobby Zavala of Business & Financial Planning is one happy dad! Baby Emma was born with a smile on her face on June 30, 2021. She was 6.1 lbs and 18.5 inches… and Megan Yoskowitz of Special Events Catering welcomed Harrison Jay Yoskowitz to her family on July 21, 2021. Everyone is doing great!
Student-to-Staff Support App on its Way
A new opportunity for students to connect with UCSB staff is in development thanks to Kristen Burnett, Associate Director and R&CL Assistant Dean of Students.
She had the idea of creating an app that will help students get quick support and serve as a possible alternative to Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS). Students will be able to see in real-time a friendly face who is available and where. That friendly face can be you!
Spread the word: HDAE is looking for students to join our team!
Transitioning to our “Next Normal”
As we prepare for students to return to campus while continuing to navigate the pandemic, I want to update you on the latest, as well as applaud the work everyone has accomplished while facing immense challenges that continue to evolve. You have all shown that you can operate with creativity, flexibility and persistence during an extremely challenging time.
