President's BBQ: Message of appreciation to 大象传媒 employees
July 10, 2020
As the weather turns warmer, I regret that we cannot gather as we normally do for the President鈥檚 employee appreciation BBQ. Each year, I look forward to the BBQ as an opportunity to connect with you, and to expres-archives my appreciation for your service to 大象传媒.
I am particularly disappointed that I cannot again thank you in person for your hard work and commitment to the university before my time as pres-archiveident comes to an end.
Although my video message below is virtual, you can be sure that my gratitude is very real.
We have also found a fun way to keep the spirit of the BBQ alive. If you visit , we鈥檝e compiled some of our employees' favourite summer BBQ recipes.
Whatever your plans this summer, I hope you are able to take a well-deserved break.
Be kind, stay safe 鈥� until we meet again.
