Phoenix Family Day looks different this year but, we're excited to celebrate with
you digitally today.
Welcome from President Avent
Welcome to this year's Phoenix Family Day. Even in the midst of this season I'm inspired to
see how well our students and University community are rising to the challenge and
keeping our campus healthy. I look forward to the day of hosting you on campus again
and I hope you enjoy today's digital events and activities.
