Listen as Dr. Leahy explains how "unprecedented times call for unprecedented collaboration." He discusses how faculty, leadership, administration and board members collaborated across all parts of the campus to find solutions to keep students safe, continue providing education and safely open in the future. As Dr. Leahy says (referring to collaboration), "this may be one of the legacies to come from the global pandemic and may possibly reset the way in which decisions are made." Thank you, Dr. Leahy for all you do today and always. ## Related Blogs September 22nd, 2026 ### [Grantee Partner Spotlight - Common Ground Grief Center](https://blog.gruninfoundation.org/grantee-partner-spotlight-common-ground-grief-center) **by [grunin](https://blog.gruninfoundation.org/author/grunin)** [Partner Updates](https://blog.gruninfoundation.org/tag/partner-updates) Grantee Spotlight: Common Ground Grief Center Funds from the Grunin Foundation have supported "The Language of Loss" play.
