Bucks County Community College moves classes online March 23-April 30

After spring break, all credit students will take courses remotely for five weeks

Bucks County Community College, in a concerted effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19, announced that it will move all credit classes online from March 23 through April 30.

In addition, all athletics programs are suspended and public events canceled through April 30.

“We are taking a proactive approach lead to protect our students and our community from this unprecedented threat to public health,” said Bucks County Community College president Stephanie Shanblatt, Ph.D. “It was a difficult decision to make, but we strongly feel drastic measures must be taken in order to try to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.”

The college also announced that it will close all locations for deep cleaning through March 22, which coincides with spring break. Staff will work remotely from home during that time. Some essential staff may return to offices on Monday, March 23.

“We want all of our students to be able to successfully complete the semester and for everyone to remain healthy,” added Shanblatt. “We continue to monitor the situation carefully and will continue to update our students as new information becomes available.”
