A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR
COVID-19 update 8/3/2020:
The safety of our students, staff, and faculty is most important to us. For this reason, we offer all our courses in our department remotely. Students that are on campus in the Fall, will have the opportunity to arrange in-person meetings in small groups or individually.
