*An update about the following week will be given on March 19 at 4 p.m.*
A recent email to students and faculty from CMU president Robert Davies says, “Out of an abundance of caution, and to prevent and contain the spread of the coronavirus, all CMU classes will move online after spring break through March 20. This means students should not return to campus following spring break. All face-to-face classes at our main campus in Mount Pleasant — and at all of CMU’s satellite campuses throughout the U.S. with the exception of those on military bases — will move to an online format.”
Students and Families
Residence halls are to remain closed for all, except for international students and student-athletes. East residence halls (Celani, Emmons, Fabiano, Herrig, Saxe and Woldt Halls) as well as Graduate Housing, Northwest Apartments and Kewadin Village will remain open for students who are already present on campus.
Students needing to retrieve items from their halls are able to do so by stopping by their Residence Hall Director’s (RHD’s) office Sunday March 15, March 15 or Monday, March or 16 from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. to make arrangements to pick up their items. They are not allowed to stay the night once they arrive and must return home. Any additional questions can be directed to the Office of Residence Life at (989)774-3111.
Events and Services
The email sent by president Davies reads, “All CMU-sponsored events or gatherings of more than 50 people are canceled through March 31 — this includes registered student organizations.”
Additionally, no new events will be scheduled on campus through March 31. Campus services such as the Student Activity Center (SAC) will close until March 23. The Park Library and Counseling Center, however, will remain open.
