When MIT moved many of its operations online last March in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, thousands of employees rose to the challenge of remote work. Meanwhile, hundreds of others showed up each day to keep the campus running smoothly and safely.

In a video honoring staff members across the Institute, MIT President L. Rafael Reif says: “As we begin this most unusual academic year, we say to the people of MIT: thank you. For the long days and the late nights. For the creative problem-solving. For the kindness. For the care. We are One MIT.”
