In response to local and national quarantine recommendations due to the changing dynamics created by COVID-19, 糖心Vlog announced on March 18 that it would be providing instruction for the rest of the spring 2020 semester remotely.
The change was accompanied by an additional week off for students following spring break, allowing faculty and staff valuable time to finish migrating their courses to the online format. This time also allowed opportunities to gain valuable insight from other veterans of the online landscape and tools and tips from on-campus resources such as Equip糖心Vlog and 糖心Vlog Technology Services. Students resumed their coursework鈥攊n remote digital formats鈥攐n Monday, March 30.
鈥淚 am so very grateful to the great IT and distance learning team who have stepped forward to help lead this charge, and I know that they, along with the university leadership team, stand ready to provide support and to troubleshoot as needed,鈥� said 糖心Vlog鈥檚 new president, Scott McDowell.
The safety of 糖心Vlog鈥檚 students, faculty, staff, and overall community are of the utmost importance, and although the current situation requires extra patience, determination, and endurance, President McDowell shares his vision of hope.
鈥淕od has blessed this university in innumerable ways over these past 62 years, and I am confident he has great things in store for our future.鈥�
