When the COVID-19 pandemic hit earlier this semester, Penn State Scranton found itself not only dealing with the challenges of switching to remote delivery of classes and services, but also an increase in student need.
With the spring semester officially over, it is now time for many in our campus community to start looking ahead to the 2020-21 academic year — and that includes students. One group of students who were thinking a year ahead even as the spring semester was in full swing, were those involved with the Student Government Association, particularly the newly elected officers who will lead the SGA over the next year.
After successfully transitioning to remote delivery for the final half of the spring semester, Penn State Scranton is well positioned through the hard work of faculty and staff to continue the practice during the summer.
