Kean University will shift to remote operations on Sunday, October 12, due to the State of Emergency declared across New Jersey in response to the forecasted nor’easter storm. All classes scheduled for Sunday on New Jersey campuses will move to remote instruction, and all in-person activities are canceled.
Only essential personnel should report to work as required. Employees with questions should contact their supervisors for guidance. Keanu’s Kitchen on the Union campus will remain open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sunday to serve residential students.
A university stands at the nexus of innovation and tradition. I draw on both to give my students the fullest experience possible. Providing content is only the most basic layer of teaching. The real task is helping students learn how to engage with the content. This is how they learn transferable skills that can benefit them in their professional, personal, and civic lives.
