Emporia State University went virtual for its fall general assembly Thursday.
President Allison Garrett says there are a lot of unknowns heading into the fall semester, largely due to the coronavirus pandemic, but she’s pleased with the progress of Emporia State in several different areas.
Provost David Cordle addressed the topic everybody has been asking about: exactly how the semester would start.
Education delivery for graduate students likely won’t change much because a lot of those students were already online.
Garrett thanked staffers in the information technology, facilities, human resources, student advising and residential life for their adjustments leading from March into the start of the fall semester Monday. She also recognized advancement efforts for the university’s third-highest fundraising year on record despite the coronavirus pandemic.
Emporia State also enjoyed a nearly 12-percent increase in summer headcount and a nearly 16-percent increase in student credit hours, mainly in graduate programs.
