Dear graduate assistants,
We hope your semester is going smoothly and that you're doing well. We're reaching out with two important pieces of information for GAs.
First, we want you to be aware of an important campus resource, the UNLV Support Team, in case you have students in your classes or labs who may be in need. The UNLV Support Team maintains a referral system for members of the UNLV community to quickly connect students in distress with campus resources. Whether students are experiencing stress related to COVID-19, anxiety over their academic performance, sudden hardships in their personal lives, suicidal ideation, or anything in between, the UNLV Support Team works to ensure that each student referred its way obtains appropriate care and support from the university. Learn more about the UNLV Support Team and please keep it in mind as you interact with students.
Second, we want to amplify an email that Human Resources sent to all UNLV employees on Aug. 30 regarding the State of Nevada's vaccine-or-test mandate for all state employees, including graduate assistants. Please find a copy of that email below. Thank you in advance for reading the information thoroughly. We will continue to share information with you as it becomes available.
Please reach out to the Graduate College team if we can be of any assistance.
Please take care,
Brianne Heinle Executive Director of Graduate Financial Services & Business Operations
Kate Korgan Vice Provost for Graduate Education and Dean of the Graduate College
