We are prepared to contain the Coronavirus

As we cope with the demands and challenges stemming from the spread of the Novel coronavirus, I want to reassure you that ASU and the Graduate College are prepared for this challenge. You are too!  

 

Our first priority is your health and well-being. Shifting classes online is an immediate step we can take to contain the spread of the virus. We continue to monitor this quickly evolving situation and promise to update you as necessary.  

  • All in-person classes wherever possible will transition to online instruction. Classes will continue in this mode for two weeks, at which time the university will assess where things stand with COVID-19. 

  • The university remains open. University housing, computer labs, food service, health clinics, counseling services, research labs and all other aspects of the university remain open.

  • All public events will continue unless otherwise announced.

 

To make the transition to online classes easier, we have collected some resources you may find valuable.

Remote Learning

Review the Learning remotely at ASU guide. Some notes:

  • Your instructors may use a combination of Zoom, Canvas and Slack to deliver your classes, enable discussions and make all aspects of learning happen online.

  • You should be prepared to use these tools to connect with your instructors and other students to continue work that you were doing on campus.

  • If your class is taught in a lab, studio or performance space, your professor will let you know if the class will meet in person.

  • You will be contacted by your professors directly about how they plan on teaching your classes. Please keep an eye on your email, Canvas or however your professors normally communicate with you. Please note that each professor may manage their class differently.

We will get through this challenging time together!
