Colleges adjust for coronavirus

Eastern New Mexico University, out of concern for the spread of coronavirus, has extended spring break through March 22, and will transition in-person classes to online or alternative formats.

Clovis Community College, meanwhile, will continue with instruction but cancel any non-instructional events. Updates are available at http://www.clovis.edu/coronavirus/index.aspx.

Also at ENMU:

• Employees are instructed to report to work as usual Monday unless otherwise directed by a supervisor, and the college will provide guidance on social distancing and preventative measures.

• Students are asked to regularly monitor their school email accounts for updates on how instruction will commence when break concludes.

• Any large events and gatherings sponsored by the university are canceled through April 15. Questions on events can be directed to the university's office of student affairs.

• Any out-of-state travel is suspended until further notice unless granted by the appropriate vice president of chancellor.

• The university will address needs for students currently residing on campus through the break, or those who are unable to travel home or find other housing arrangements.

• Students are largely encouraged to stay home and practice appropriate social distancing and preventative measures as outlined at cdc.gov.
