Wed Feb 10 210
Please see the announcement concerning Ash Wednesday Services at St. Joseph Church. This will be February 17 next Wednesday.
As such we will plan to have classes on line that day. That might be a good time to try synchronous class participation! I will be updating you in that regard between now and then. But given thelack ofparking, let's help out and meet on line that day, so no class here Feb 17, we will m eet on line however.
Hello faculty,
It has been brought to my attention that St. Joseph's Catholic church has Ash Wednesday activities all day on Wed Feb 17 (next week). Because of this, we will have very limited parking availabilty both during the day and evening. This is going to be an annual occurance so we can plan ahead for next year too!
What this means is that we are asking you to consider alternative teaching/meeting options for your classes on that day. You can hold classes online or provide an assignment for students to complete during that time off campus. If it presents a huge problem for you to re-arrange your class schedule, please be advised that parking will be extremely tight and students may have difficulty finding space – especially during the mass times which essentially are scheduled for throughout the day/evening in 2-hour intervals. However, the decision is up to you. If it is necessary for you to meet with your class face-to-face, then that is ok; just be mindful of the parking situation.
I apologize for the inconvenience. Please let me know if you must meet on campus that day. All faculty office hours for Wed Feb 17 may be suspended (just be sure your students are aware of it).
Donna & Maria - please do not schedule any student advising appointments for that day.
