Dear Virginia Western students,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As information on the COVID-19 pandemic changes on a daily\nbasis, we are dedicated to creating safe educational spaces. Beginning on\nMonday, March 23, after Spring Break concludes, Virginia Western will only\nprovide online or remote classes. In-person classes, including those held at\nclinical sites and labs, are suspended unless otherwise noted. Additional\nspecific information for AAS Nursing students will come from your program director.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have listed April 6 as the date we plan to reopen, but\nthis is very likely to change based upon Centers for Disease Control and\nPrevention (CDC) and Virginia Department of Health (VDH) guidelines. If you are\nenrolled in a class that relies on a clinical site or hands-on learning in a\nlab, your faculty member or school will reach out to you directly on next\nsteps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting Monday, campus will only be open to those employees\nwho are not fully teleworking. Students will not be allowed on campus until\nfurther notice. If you need assistance accessing a class online or remotely,\nplease contact your faculty member or school directly. Be sure to check your\nstudent email frequently and log on to your class in Canvas. We will be sending\nmore information on resources to assist with his transition through email. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We understand that this is an uncertain time and you may\nfeel very real concerns. Sheri Meixner, Virginia Western’s intervention\ncounselor, is available via online meeting or phone to help you. You can set up\nan appointment with Ms. Meixner by contacting her at smeixner@virginiawestern.edu<\/a> or\n540-857-6711. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our School of Career and Corporate Training (CCT), which\nprovides short-term training programs and specialized training, is\ncommunicating directly with students and clients on the suspension of classes\nand online delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for your patience as we adapt our practices to\nrespond to this evolving public health crisis. I am very proud of our fantastic\nfaculty and staff who are working hard to make this transition as seamless as\npossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Robert H. Sandel<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President<\/p>\n\n\n\n
