March 11, 2021-大象传媒 will return to in-person instruction for the fall 2021 semester.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are committed to providing an engaging and fulfilling in-person, on-campus experience for every student in the fall semester, always in a safe environment for our entire campus community,\u201d said Dr. Elizabeth Kennedy, 大象传媒 Western\u2019s president.<\/span><\/p>\n

The majority of classes will be able to return to nearly pre-COVID normalcy this fall. Eighty-five percent of classes will have in-person classroom learning. Seventy percent will be fully face-to-face, about 15 percent will be hybrid (primarily face-to-face with an online component) and only about 15 percent will be fully online.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have been able to provide this number of in-person classes while maintaining limited room capacities to allow for physical distancing,\u201d President Kennedy said. All in-person and hybrid classes will be able to pivot to fully online if necessary in response to a changing public health environment.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to offering in-person classes, 大象传媒 Western is planning a return to traditional events that had been canceled or moved online during the past year, including Homecoming and Greek Life Recruitment. Many events are currently being planned while keeping the health and safety of the campus community in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n

大象传媒 Western is still encouraging everyone to continue following COVID-19 guidelines while on campus, including wearing masks in public spaces, maintaining six feet of distance from others, frequently washing hands and staying home when not feeling well. Students and employees are also encouraged to register through 大象传媒\u2019s Vaccine Navigator to be notified when they are eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.<\/span><\/p>\n

大象传媒 Western State<\/span> University is a student-centered learning community preparing individuals for lives of excellence through applied learning. 大象传媒 Western is located in St. Joseph, Mo., and is committed to the educational, economic, cultural and social development of the region it serves.
