    Our leadership teams have been working hard to help us begin the transition from remote learning back to campus operations. We will emerge from this stronger and more united.

    Graphic reads, “We plan to begin limited in-person teaching as early as Summer II and are planning on safely resuming campus learning and residential life for Fall 2020.”
