Ready For You At TU

Press release from Towson University:

July 26, 2020

Since mid-March, the Towson University campus has been more noticeably quiet. Students
and professors moved to a distance learning model. Much of TU's staff has been working
from home. Still, the goal was always a "Return to TU."

To make that happen and welcome the community back, various offices and departments
throughout the university have been working throughout the spring and summer to prepare
TU for a new era.

Some of their efforts have been featured in recent days and more will be profiled
in the days to come. Catch up with some of the stories below.

Office of Public Safety: Read how staff have created sanitizing stations, kept construction ongoing and kept campus safe over the summer.

Facilities: While most people left campus in March, a dedicated team of facilities and ABM Janitorial
Services staff jumped into action. One important step was measuring campus buildings
to determine room capacities and traffic flow according to CDC guidelines. An unprecedented situation called for unprecedented collaboration across departments, and even institutions.

Housing & Residence Life: With students getting ready to come back to campus for the fall academic term, Housing and Residence Life (HRL) is taking every precaution to make sure students feel safe during this time of uncertainty.

University Store: Read how the UStore staff have prepared course materials and kept orders flowing.
