Summer and Fall Plans
Sent 5/27/2021
Dear Colleagues,
As you plan to leave for vacations or prepare to work through the summer, I wanted to reach out to let you know what's ahead.
As you know, summer will remain online as we continue to follow COVID-19 guidelines. However, I am excited to announce we plan to welcome students back to campus for registration appointments and classes for the Fall 2021 semester.
MSJC is scheduling a robust offering of face-to-face, on-campus classes and online classes for Fall 2021 and continues to monitor state and county guidance related to COVID-19 for any changes over the coming months. The Fall 2021 semester starts August 16.
MSJC is opening for student services starting in June and is following state and county guidance related to COVID-19. MSJC has implemented health and safety measures as outlined by the Centers for Disease Control and CalOSHA to ensure a safe learning and working environment for students, faculty, classified professionals, administrators, and other visitors.
Please visit our Return to Campus page for more information. We expect to receive updated information from the state after June 15th. Please check that page for any updates that become available after that date, as well as further updates as we near the start of the fall term. We anticipate guidance will change significantly over the next 10 weeks as the health trends look positive.
MSJC is also welcoming students for the first time to the new Temecula Valley Campus for classes on August 16.
All campuses will continue to expand face-to-face, on-campus services and classes as student demand and state guidance related to COVID-19 allows.
Students who schedule appointments for registration, financial aid, counseling, and the Student Health Centers will be able to meet with MSJC professionals starting in June. Online appointments will still be available as well. Students can schedule appointments by visiting the Student Support HUB.
The MSJC libraries and learning resource centers will be open to students as well starting in June.
Please share this information with your colleagues. Also, as we start the fall semester, be sure to join our monthly Brown Bag events so you can hear updates from me and the rest of the Executive Cabinet team.
Thank you for all your hard work and your unwavering commitment to our students.
Stay safe and be healthy,
Roger
