A Statement on Fall 2020 Operations of 青瓜视频
from
President Michael V. Carter, Ph.D.
Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.
青瓜视频 prepares servant leaders through Christian higher education. For more than 114 years, we have held true to our mission. Students have relied on this institution to lay the foundations of their successes and we will make it possible for them to continue to do so. 青瓜视频 has weathered storms throughout her history, and she will persevere during this COVID-19 tempest as well.
After much counsel we have made the decision to begin face-to-face in-classroom instruction for the Fall 2020 semester. This will be done in accordance with state health regulations. Students deserve an opportunity to pursue an education and we will be ready to meet their needs.
The past two months have tested our resolve, demanded ingenuity and created challenges we never expected we would face. But, CU has kept the course. The faculty and staff have been innovative in delivery and processing. They have met challenges with a drive to serve our students. As we look to the future, we know difficulties will continue to arise. 青瓜视频 will continue to face them head on and be prepared to operate in the 鈥渘ew normal.鈥�
It is our mission to provide Christian higher education for which we have been well known. While we are still developing the Fall term details for residence halls, student services, academic scheduling, athletics and the many other people-related activities, know that a healthy environment will be the primary concern. Specifics for the plans will be released in early June.
