Dear Students,
We write today to share a shift in class times for the winter term, beginning January 4, 2021.
The winter class schedule for both core and elective courses will be:
8:20 a.m. – 9:50 a.m. (ET)
10:20 a.m. – 11:50 a.m.
1:15 p.m. – 2:45 p.m.
3:15 p.m. – 4:45 p.m.
*With evening sessions starting at 5:15 p.m. or later.
The reason for this shift is to ensure each course has a dedicated classroom space (i.e., no mixing of hybrid course participants) that meets requirements for air turnover and filtration.
We share this time adjustment with you today as to provide advance notice for those who may need to alter morning routines.
We will continue to provide updates about plans for the winter term in the weeks ahead.
Thank you,
Joe, Brian, and Sally
