In compliance with guidance from Mississippi Institutions of Higher Learning regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, ¹ú²úÂé¶¹AV announced today that the university will deliver online or other remote instructional course content for the remainder of the 2020 spring semester. That decision is based on national and state public health protocols established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH).
Information on laboratory courses will be communicated to students by their instructors.
Additionally, current CDC and MSDH guidelines preclude ¹ú²úÂé¶¹AV from holding any large public gatherings. Consequently, IHL recommendations are that traditional commencement exercises be indefinitely postponed. Plans to appropriately honor ¹ú²úÂé¶¹AV graduates will be discussed and revealed when the national emergency is concluded.
Commencement is one of ¹ú²úÂé¶¹AV’s most meaningful and cherished traditions, one that our students and their families have earned. As an institution, ¹ú²úÂé¶¹AV remains committed to celebrating our graduates at a safe and appropriate time.
