In his March 30 video address to the UMass Medical School community, Chancellor Michael F. Collins recognized the many people who have stepped up to help as everyone copes with the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I have been inspired by the selfless acts of courage, determination and thoughtfulness,” he said. “So many are committed to the needs of others! Acts of kindness abound: be they a call to the lonely, a wave at the window, a note from a donor or a friend from days past! Amidst it all, these are days where inspiration is infused with actions by those who care for others.”
