Global Pandemic Response

December 21, 2020

COVID-19 inspired us to think differently. We transitioned to online learning, raised money for those affected, celebrated first responders, changed admissions requirements, held a virtual commencement, transitioned to blocking scheduling, enhanced safety operations and provided complimentary PPE kits. Thanks to our commitment to #TakeCharge we saw very few positive cases.
