JJC Operations Announcement for Fall 2020 semester
To proactively prepare for the fall semester, I am announcing the following operational plan for Joliet Junior College’s Fall 2020 semester, in alignment with state mandates outlined in the Restore Illinois Plan:
All Fall 2020 lecture courses will be delivered online.
This includes lecture courses that had been scheduled to be traditional face-to-face as well as lecture courses that had been scheduled to be hybrid.
Courses scheduled with a combination of lecture and lab should be delivered in a hybrid format—lecture online and lab face-to-face.
The face-to-face component would be contingent upon the State’s Restore Illinois plan and achievement of the Phase 4 standard. Until this standard is met, online lab simulations will be used in lieu of face-to-face labs. Details will be developed and finalized by departments, deans, and the Academic Affairs division.
Lab-only courses will be delivered face-to face contingent upon the State’s Restore Illinois mandate and achievement of the Phase 4 standard.
Until this standard is met, online lab simulations will be used in lieu of face-to-face labs. Details will be developed and finalized by departments, deans, and the Academic Affairs division.
--------
The last two months we have lived through a lot of instability and frustration with constantly evolving information. We know there continues to be many unanswered questions, and we are working every day to further define what our reality looks like in the coming months. Our mission, however, remains the same and I am grateful for the hope and positivity our campus community collectively generates daily to support one another through these challenges.
On a final note, all employees will receive additional information via email about summer semester, as well as more job specific information from their Cabinet members as it becomes available. Keep in mind we will continue our current operating plan of working from home remotely as the college is still in Phase 2 the state plan. We will also provide a copy of the Restore Illinois Plan and how the college’s operations align with that plan, highlighting how operations evolve with each new phase.
Stay Safe and Stay tuned,
Judy Mitchell, Ed.D.
President
