Parkland Colleges announces plans for Fall 2020

Parkland College has given students an idea about what the fall 2020 semester will look like.

Parkland’s plan is contingent upon the Central District in the Restore Illinois plan being in Phase 4, where groups of 50 are allowed. At this time, the Central Region is on pace to meet the requirements to enter into Phase 4.

Instruction will include both online and on-campus options, with on-campus courses delivered as hybrid courses. Students with campus-based courses will attend some meetings on the campus and complete some coursework online.

On-campus social distancing and safety guidelines will be enacted. The press release said that students may be divided into small small groups for on-campus meetings; courses with larger enrollment may require staggered scheduling for on-campus meetings.

To minimize the number of on-campus meetings after the Thanksgiving break, many of Parkland College’s transfer classes will end their on-campus instructional component by Nov. 20, with the online component continuing through the end of the semester. Career classes that require in-person labs may continue on-campus meetings through the semester’s end.

Parkland said that it believes communication between staff and student will be key. Students will be contacted prior to the beginning of the semester with instruction on what days they should attend.

Registration for Parkland College fall courses is underway; students can review step-by-step directions on how to register.

The University of Illinois is expected to make a final announcement on courses by mid-June.
