			Lincoln 
			College continues to navigate through this unprecedented time. While 
			we are still not aware of any cases of the novel coronavirus in 
			Logan County, the safety of the Lincoln College community is our 
			principal concern. Therefore, we are taking proactive steps with 
			guidance from the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease 
			Control (CDC), as well as local and state health officials.  | 
        
            | 
			
			 At this time, Lincoln College will deliver all 
			traditional classes online from at least March 23-April 3. No 
			face-to-face instruction will take place on campus. Going to online 
			instruction enables Lincoln College to adhere to social distancing 
			guidelines and ensure the well-being of our students. 
 Lincoln College administration will continue to work diligently on 
			several contingency scenarios, making informed decisions to limit 
			the spread of COVID-19, while ensuring our mission to “uniquely 
			empower students to realize their full potential” is sustained 
			moving forward.
 
 Lincoln College is restricting public access to all campus 
			facilities until further notice. This decision allows our 
			institution to reduce the number of individuals on our campus in 
			order to protect vulnerable populations.

            All public and private campus tours of Lincoln 
			College, as well as college or community-sponsored events, are also 
			discontinued at this time. The virtual tour is still available via 
			the Lincoln College website. 
			 
            As we persevere through this extraordinary crisis, 
			our institution will provide updates to the campus and community as 
			they become available. We encourage the public to join members of 
			the Lincoln College cabinet and I tomorrow, March 19, on Facebook 
			and Instagram Live at 2:00 p.m. for a question and answer event on 
			COVID-19. 
 I have no doubt that Lincoln College can get through these difficult 
			times together. In the face of adversity, our faculty and staff will 
			continue to be dedicated to supporting our students.
