With the community's best interest in mind, the College of Extended Education and Global Engagement has suspended or cancelled all courses which cannot be moved to an online delivery. All students will be personally notified.
This difficult decision aligns with guidance provided by Humboldt State University and the Governor of the State of California and California Dept. of Public Health to help minimize potential spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19).
This suspension will remain in effect until further notice.
