Washtenaw Community College is preparing to welcome an influx of students back to campus in the upcoming school year. Students have already returned en masse. Nearly 5,000 are enrolled in on-campus classes in the current Winter semes- ter, which started in January — when local health and safety guidelines were still strict.
As COVID-19 cases continue to decrease, WCC is preparing for even more students to return to face-to- face learning and participation in on-campus activities in the upcoming Summer and Fall semesters.
“Things are changing for the better, which has allowed us to reinstate some important college traditions — like returning to an in-person Honors Convocation and Commencement ceremony this May,” said WCC President Dr. Rose B. Bellanca.
“With the availability of vaccines and treatments, I fully expect the return of students to on-campus learning and activities will continue throughout the summer and really make a big jump when the new academic year begins in August.”
