UNC Extends Spring Break, Institutes Remote Instruction to Mitigate Spread of COVID-19

Posted Mar 11, 2020
Today, UNC is announcing a plan that will require us to pivot from where we were as a campus one week ago to encourage greater “social distancing” and mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 virus. We are extending spring break through Sunday, March 22. Starting Monday, March 23, the majority of classes will be offered remotely and will remain that way for the foreseeable future. (UNC.edu)
