Today we launched the Volunteer Commitment, our community’s promise to protect ourselves and one another, prevent the spread of illness, and help maintain an on-campus experience.

In an effort to make the process easier during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we will make submitting standardized test scores (ACT/SAT) optional for the fall 2021 admissions cycle.

Supervisors: If you have not yet done so, now is the time to make sure your department and teams’ work spaces are ready and that you have adequate PPE available for the level of staff returning.

Thanks to all of you, we will give our students a meaningful college experience this fall.

Our planning is being done with maximum flexibility, compassion, and creativity—and with the needs of our students in mind.

As we enter the second half of our summer, we continue our planning for an in-person fall semester.

We have collected stories of Volunteers helping us move forward together during the coronavirus pandemic.

As you begin returning to campus, either full-time or on occasion, you will notice some differences since you were last here.

As we near the end of our first week of Phase 2, I want to thank everyone for their cooperation and willingness to adapt.

On Monday, June 8 we will enter the second phase of our return-to-work plan.
