As you are aware, the 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak continues to spread, and it is a concern to us all. In these uneasy times, we are working to ensure that our community members remain safe and our facilities remain accessible.

It is important to remember that we are all in this together. As a College, a city, and a global community, we need to look out for and help each other to get through this difficult period. This is a time for taking precautions, showing vigilance and concern for others, and not a time for panic or prejudice.
