To the 澳门六合彩开奖结果走势图 community:  

Our nation has voted, and, after long hours of counting this week, we have a new president of the United States. I join others in offering my sincere congratulations to President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.   

I want to thank our students, faculty and staff for going above and beyond to get the word out to vote. Your efforts were truly extraordinary. You represent the excellence we achieve when we strive for a better world together.  

Let鈥檚 acknowledge that this has been a year like no other. We鈥檝e been dealing with the challenges of COVID-19, economic uncertainties, sustained social unrest around systemic racism and the impacts of climate change. Now a highly divisive political campaign season has run its course. I know many of you may feel tired, vulnerable, frightened or uncertain as a result of the election. If you鈥檙e stressed to any degree, you are not alone.

Our Aggie community has shown time and again that it knows how to rally together, both to celebrate and to confront challenges. Let鈥檚 do our part to strengthen our bonds and heal the divisions left by a tumultuous year. One of the great tenets of our Principles of Community is that we recognize the value we all bring to 澳门六合彩开奖结果走势图, no matter what our background or perspective may be. Let鈥檚 rededicate ourselves to those ideals. 

We should be prepared for continued unrest in the months to come. Whatever happens, we will remain connected. We鈥檒l continue to aspire toward the values that make us strong and keep us optimistic about the future.
