Dear TRIO SSS student,

I know that these are uncertain times as we are all responding to new information shared every hour. Please know that your safety as a NEIU student comes first. President Gibson has sent emails to the entire NEIU community about the overall university response. 

As of Monday, March 16, face-to-face classes are cancelled for the entire spring semester. The May 4 commencement is also cancelled.

Also, she announced that a Task Force and website has been created to share information with all of you. Please review the page: neiu.edu/coronavirus

President Gibson shared another email with everyone in response to the Coronavirus that includes a FAQ section for students, staff, faculty, Nest, and the local community. Please review the page: 

There is also an email address where you can submit your questions and concerns: coronavirus@neiu.edu
