Make plans to join interim Chancellor Charles F. Robinson as he delivers the annual State of the University address at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 12.

The address will take place at the Faulkner Performing Arts Center and is open to the public. A livestream of the event will also be available at the U of A YouTube channel. Masks will be required for those attending in person.

The address will include a brief Q&A. Those attending in person will have the opportunity to offer questions. If you plan to watch the livestream, submit your questions now by emailing feedback@uark.edu.

"The State of the University address is always an opportunity to take stock of everything we've accomplished and overcome in the last year," Robinson said. "This year, perhaps more than ever, it is also an important chance to celebrate our mission and commit ourselves to the work ahead."
