The 暗网吃瓜鈥檚 ceremony has been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but Matthew Burns, the College鈥檚 dean of students and host of the annual dinner, says the impact of the students honored at the 鈥淩ockys鈥澛爎emains strong.
鈥淭he Rockys represent the tremendous effort, talent, and commitment our students have to our University and its community,鈥� Burns says. 鈥淚t鈥檚 with an enormous sense of sadness and disappointment that we cannot have the gala event in person this year. However, whether our winners are just down the street practicing social distancing or halfway around the world has no bearing on their impact upon the University, their worthiness in receiving the award, or our pride in their many accomplishments. It is as high an honor as ever to reach out to our remarkable Rockys recipients, thank them for all their hard work, and hope that this message finds them safe and well.鈥�
