Dear Administrators, Researchers, and Staff,
First and foremost, I want to thank you for your work during this unprecedented time.
You are the foundation that keeps our community and University moving forward. I appreciate how challenging it has been to work in this changing landscape.
I write now to share that all Steinhardt administrators, researchers, and staff will begin working remotely effective Monday, March 16, 2020, whenever and wherever possible. University facilities remain open; please work with your supervisors and department managers to ensure you and your teams have the necessary resources and workforce continuity plans to continue operations. I ask managers to extend maximum flexibility with these arrangements.
Employees working remotely should follow the instructions in the Readiness Guide for Telework, including
- Installing and Using NYU VPN
- Installing and Using NYU Zoom
- Setting up Jabber (to remotely access your office desk phone from your home computer)
- NYU Data Storage Solutions
For the latest information and resources, please visit the NYU Steinhardt Coronavirus Information webpage and University’s Employee FAQ for additional information.
I strongly encourage teams to work together and think creatively to ensure continuity of work while offering flexibility for commitments and responsibilities within and outside of the institution. Take good care of yourselves and your loved ones.
