Vincennes University is preparing for the return of students to its campuses in August for face-to-face instruction with appropriate health safety measures in place. Changes to the university academic calender for the 2020 fall semester and the 2021 spring semester were shared during a teleconference session of the Board of Trustees Wednesday. Both in-person and online classes for the fall will begin on Monday August 17th and the first day of spring semester will be Tuesday January 19th. Face-to-face instruction for the fall will end before Thanksgiving and the start of the spring semester will be delayed to safeguard students, faculty and staff from COVID-19. Residence halls are scheduled to reopen with reduced capacity and health protocols in place. More details of the plan will be released in July.
