Upperclassmen Schedule
Juniors and Seniors will return to campus three days a week beginning this Wednesday, October 28, without impacting the current schedule for Freshmen and Sophomores. We will host the entire student body on campus each Wednesday by using non-traditional spaces like the Marianist Art Gallery as classrooms. This is the next step in safely hosting all of our students on campus.
You may need to adjust your arrival time on Wednesday mornings as we are screening the entire student body before classes begin at 8:15 am.
