COVID-19 Update for March 11
Cancellation of In-Person Classes March 13–24
To prepare to move to online instruction, should it become necessary in the future, Chico Stateis canceling all in-person classes Friday, March 13, through Tuesday, March 24, which includes the previously scheduled spring break from March 16–20. Fully online courses will continue as usual—they are NOT canceled during this period. This cancellation of in-person classes will afford faculty time to make necessary preparations for delivering in non-face-to-face formats after spring break if transitioning to alternative formats becomes necessary due to COVID-19-related health concerns.Classes will resume in-person on Wednesday, March 25. If the situation changes, we will notify you immediately.
Campus is NOT closing. University offices and services such as the library, student services, and health services will remain open for business as usual. Staff, MPP, and student employees should report to work during this period as scheduled.
