This is my final Chair’s Letter for the department Newsletter and I type it amid a world changing at vertiginous speed. The new coronavirus has demonstrated with impressive efficiency that historical context matters enormously. We are never returning to the world of January 2020. I am also acutely conscious of how differently it affects people by age. Although my oldest colleagues are most vulnerable medically, I fear most for people the age of our students...Retiring Faculty: John Bushnell
