Thanks for asking, Emily—all of us in the Art Department who are teaching in block 5 have conscientiously made contingency plans. However, we all are quite apprehensive about block 5 considering the spread of Omicron, the amount of Covid-19 already in our J block class and the fact that two of our faculty currently have come down with covid. Several of my colleagues are questioning the wisdom of the administration’s decisions about the start of the spring semester.

We plan on sending official notifications by the 18th. If you have questions in the meantime, please do get in touch with me and Dale. Best, Emily PS How are colleagues in your dept/pgm doing in making contingency plans (and for many, launching their contingency plans) for covid related disruptions? ---- EMILY CHAN, PHD Dean of the Faculty Professor of Psychology Office of the Dean of the Faculty Armstrong Hall 201 [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> o (719) 389-6682 COLORADO COLLEGE 14 E.
