Campuses making plans to start but everything could change
All three of the major campuses in Memphis, including Rhodes College, are in the midst of preparation and plan to make announcements in the next several weeks on specifics of how classes and dorms will operate during the COVID-19 pandemic. Rhodes is making those decisions in concert with Baptist Memorial Health Care, its partner for testing, contact tracing and advice in the pandemic. (Daily Memphian file)
For right now, U of M, Christian Brothers and Rhodes College all intend to have dorms open, classes in person and in some cases, online.
