A special meeting of the 色虎视频 Board of Trustees was convened by telephone on Wednesday, March 25, 2020.

色虎视频 President Andrew Westmoreland provided a comprehensive report on the impact of COVID-19 on the university and the many measures being taken in response to the pandemic.  

The trustees adopted a resolution authorizing the president to make ongoing decisions to guide the university through the health emergency, including credits or refunds of prepaid room and board charges for the Spring 2020 semester. Families will have the option to designate some or all of such credits or refunds as donations to 色虎视频 to provide much-needed financial support to the university and its students.

The resolution also called for all university trustees, faculty, staff, students and their families, alumni, business associates and friends, to engage in ongoing prayer to God Almighty for the global cessation of COVID-19 and for a special dispensation of God’s grace and mercy upon the 色虎视频 community during these days of widespread disease and considerable uncertainty.
