Starting tomorrow, the PIU campus will be closed. Except for online classes, no classes will be held until the campus reopens. It's kind of a self-imposed quarantine. Some students who live on campus will choose to go to a relative's house during the shutdown. Others will remain, here. Some have no alternative. Kathy and I live on campus. :)
Like it is for many of you, the novel coronavirus has forced us to make some difficult choices. We aren't yet sure how we will finish the semester. Both PIU and many of our students lack the infrastructure to go to a fully online format. I wouldn't say we are making this up as go along. It is true, however, that we are seeking God's guidance as we react to things as they come our way.

Here are some of the recent news stories about novel corona from this region.

Please pray for us. We aren't really concerned about getting sick. We are desirous of doing the right thing.
