These are very trying times for all of us,” he said, referencing the COVID-19 outbreak. “At COD, we have faced many challenges over our 50-plus year existence. The current challenges COD and its students face are very different to anything we’ve experienced before, but as an institution we are adapting and using technology to provide for our students. I want to thank the administration and faculty for entering this chapter with open minds and an eye on delivering the quality education so many have come to expect from College of DuPage. We will get through this and be stronger for it.”
