Dear Faculty and Staff, You're invited to the May session of Tea & Talk, a monthly professional development space that connects, reflects, and builds community. This initiative is brought to you by the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (ODEI), in collaboration with Human Resources, Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS), Academic Personnel Services (APS), and Staff Council.

Due to state fire marshal requirements, the use of sternos and open flame devices are no longer permitted on campus for indoor spaces.   All caterers, including offsite caterers, cannot use sterno type products or open flame devices for heating hot food. For outside catered events, a State Fire Marshal permit is required for the use of sternos or open flame heating equipment. Our own campus catering, Humboldt Dining, has moved to alternate options for indoor heated catering. This includes heating packets as well as electric heaters.
