In order to minimize the disruption of student progress in our programs, here are the current CUE course delivery plan during COVID-19 concerns (these plans are necessarily fluid as the situation progresses).

1. Weeks of March 16th and March 23rd: Classes are not canceled. Professors will transfer their classes online during this time.

2. Week of March 30th: No classes – this is our scheduled spring break.

3. Week of April 6th: Resume normal schedule as UNC main campus is planning to do. This date is fluid – that is, it may change as we get closer to this date.

4. Students ought to continue their work in schools (student teaching and apprenticeship hours) as long as their schools are open.
