Yes, we are postponing the First Look event and will be contacting all of those who RSVP’d for that event by Monday, March 16.  We hope to reschedule it for April 18 and will let you know the details as soon as possible.

Residential students will be allowed on campus until Wednesday, March 18 at 3 p.m. to retrieve textbooks and other necessities. If the student is in a distant location, there is no need to make a trip to campus to retrieve textbooks.

We encourage students who traveled over Spring Break to remain off campus until online instruction ends. Students who have traveled to impacted areas, on cruises and in airports are strongly encouraged to stay home during this period. Please also self-report through this web form.

Faculty members are aware of the possibility that students may not have access to their textbooks. Instructional content will be modified to minimize the need for textbooks. The library website (library.csuniv.edu) provides access to thousands of e-resources, and faculty members will direct you to these sites to ensure proper course content is available to the students.

We are fortunate to have a federal grant from the Department of Education that has allowed us to offer enhanced online services through Blackboard. Those resources are now available and include video conferencing, live chat, e-mail, and 24/7 technical support. Professors are setting up their classes in Blackboard and will utilize resources other than textbooks since most students did not take their books with them on Spring Break.

Barnes and Noble has partnered with VitalSource to make eTexts available free of charge from now until May 25. All a student has to do is visit https://get.vitalsource.com/vitalsource-helps and create an account. You will then be able to access your textbooks. We don’t have a guarantee that all books are there in electronic format, but most of them will be available.

We strongly advise those who have traveled internationally or to an impacted area to stay home during this period. Please also self-report through this web form.
