Have a great first day of school, Lumberjacks!
Welcome back, Jacks!
I hope you all had a fantastic holiday season, filled with joy and relaxation.
Today, we officially return to classes in Flagstaff, statewide, and online. Before we dive into the new semester, let’s take a moment to reflect on the many historic and memorable highlights of last semester, including our celebration of 125 years of excellence at NAU.
Thanks to the collective contributions of our incredible Lumberjack community, I’m confident that this semester and 2025 will be our most outstanding year yet.
Wishing you the best, and go Jacks!

P.S.: The “Lumberjack Roots” song that plays during the video is the result of my dabbling in some AI projects over the holiday break. It was a joint effort between me, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Suno. Listen to the full song.
