 chairs, and balance must be struck between assisting faculty and enabling the academic and research mission of the University to continue.  Faculty who might be realizing this option is necessary for them, even as the quarter is now underway, are encouraged
 to talk with their chair and/or dean about their challenges and about the feasibility of alternative arrangements for the remainder of the quarter.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
