GALLOWAY TOWNSHIP – Stockton University has announced the following measures to help reduce the rate of transmission of the COVID-19 coronavirus:

Spring break, which begins March 15, is extended through Tuesday, March 24.  From Wednesday March 25 through Sunday, April 5, Stockton will implement an alternate instructional model, with all classes being held online. The campus will remain open, and campus resources will remain available to faculty, staff and students, but students are strongly encouraged to continue their studies at home.

All events scheduled at all Stockton locations are being reviewed on a case-by-case basis and efforts will be made to limit large gatherings.  More information will be shared as those decisions are made.

Stockton also announced that all international travel by faculty, staff and students is cancelled until further notice.

“I am confident that we can continue to provide a high quality education while prioritizing the health and safety of our community,” Stockton President Harvey Kesselman said.

As of this date, there are no presumptive or confirmed cases of COVID-19 at Stockton.  Additional information and updates will be posted on the Stockton coronavirus page, available through the Stockton homepage at stockton.edu.
