Message from Provost Wendell Pritchett

on Exiting Campus Regarding the

COVID-19 Pandemic


Alright everyone, last round.

You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.

Unless your home needs to be campus housing, in which case you definitely cannot go home. Actually, if your home is off campus, you can’t go there either. Unless maybe you can? Still not sure on this one.

It’s closing time. Like Fresh Grocer or Bobby’s Burgers, time to get gone people.

Time to head out, time to say goodbye. Well not say goodbye to all of the seniors you’ll never see again, more like text them saying how sad it is that you won’t say goodbye. 

We hope you will all understand and comprehend this policy. And if not, k all good no worries.

- Your dude, Wendell
