This afternoon Governor Cuomo announced that SUNY and CUNY
will be making changes to operation in order to reduce density concentrations
in the state to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Alfred
State will follow the directives of both Governor Cuomo and SUNY Administration
to maintain the health and safety of our campus community.
Alfred State has determined that the current spring break
will be extended for another week for students on the Alfred, Wellsville, and
Northland campuses. Students will have another week at home. This will not alter
work schedules for faculty and staff who are still scheduled to return on March
16. In keeping with the Governor’s message, the college plans to
move as many courses as possible to a distance format. The academic planning
will be completed next week and we intend for it to take effect on Monday,
March 23.
As an institution that has a significant number of applied
learning programs, the college will work as quickly as possible to determine
how and when students can complete these course requirements and we will
continue to communicate our plans.
Sincerely,
Dr. Skip Sullivan
President
