两性色午夜's Modified Spring Schedule

两性色午夜 applauds Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine鈥檚 proactive approach to keeping our state safe during the ongoing spread of coronavirus (COVID-19).

To slow transmission of the virus and consistent with recommendations from state health authorities to limit large gatherings and practice social distancing,

两性色午夜 is taking the following preventative and proactive actions:

  • March 10 at 4:25 p.m.-March 15: Face-to-face classes canceled.
  • March 16-20: Classes will be held via remote instruction.
  • March 23-29: Spring break will occur as scheduled.
  • March 30-April 10: Classes will be held via remote instruction.
  • April 13: Face-to-face classes will resume.

Clinical rotations for the College of Podiatric Medicine, the College of Nursing, and the Allied Health and Associate Degree of Nursing programs on the Regional Campuses will continue, but face-to-face classes will cease. 

Kent Campus students are strongly encouraged to return to their homes during this modified spring schedule, but residence halls will remain open with reduced dining options. While completing classes remotely, students are encouraged to practice appropriate social distancing and enhanced preventative public health and hygiene measures.

During this modified spring schedule, overall operations of the university will continue, and the University Library will be accessible. Faculty may continue to use their offices and labs. However, meetings are suspended. All campuses will remain open to serve students who rely on services, including health services, dining services, residence halls and intercollegiate athletic facilities. The Kent Student Center and the Warren Student Recreation and Wellness Center will be closed.

Events scheduled for campus locations through April 12 are canceled to avoid creating large gatherings. No additional spring semester events will be scheduled. The Mid-American Conference is canceling the remainder of the 2020 MAC Men's and Women's Basketball tournament.

We take all of these steps to ensure the health and safety of our campus community and to be proactive in an effort to prevent illness while continuing the academic mission of the university.

We will continue to monitor the outbreak and will align our recommendations with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization and other city, state and federal agencies.

There are currently no campus-associated cases of COVID-19.
