EAC has announced that its campus is not closing at this time, but in or order to mitigate the growing risk of COVID-19 transmission it may become necessary to implement social distancing practices after students and faculty arrive back from spring break on Monday, March 23.

“We will continue to monitor the growing risk of COVID-19 transmission and make appropriate decisions after students arrive back from spring break,” stated EAC President Todd Haynie. “Based on official reports from governmental health agencies, we may decide to virtualize classes and further limit or curtail campus events.”
