COVID-19 Information

In light of COVID-19, the College is taking preemptive measures to protect the health and safety of our campus community.

We are implementing policies that reduce density and promote social distancing.

Our goals are to protect the health and safety of all community members, contribute to the public health fight against the pandemic, and support the continued education of our students. With those goals in mind, we are taking the following steps:

The College will extend its Spring Break by one week and transition all coursework to distance learning on Monday March 23, 2020 through Friday April 3, 2020. Any online courses that are already being delivered will continue as normal. We will reevaluate and inform the community of our plans for April 4, 2020 and beyond.
