Repairs to the Science Building are now complete, and that facility will reopen on Tuesday, January 17, in time for the first day of the Spring 2023 semester. However, repairs to the Visual Arts Building are still ongoing and the VAB will remain closed for the first two weeks of the spring semester. Unfortunately, this will necessitate the movement of some courses to Grossnickle Hall or moved to remote status. If you are scheduled for a class in the VAB during the period of January 17-27, please check with your instructor whether it will occur in person or via remote modality.
