Emergency Alert
UDC Operating Remotely as of 12:30 p.m. Today, Monday, March 16

The University of the District of Columbia’s academic and administrative offices will move to remote operations as of 12:30 p.m. today, Monday, March 16. All on-campus activities, including athletics, are cancelled.

Staff: Contact your immediate supervisor with questions or for further instruction regarding remote work expectations.

Faculty: Reach out to your immediate supervisor and/or the dean for questions and further instruction regarding the transition to emergency remote instruction (ERI). The Center for the Advancement of Learning (CAL) is available to support faculty with instructional continuity, including support for Blackboard, Zoom, Webex and other teaching and learning technologies.

Students: Due to inclement weather, the university will be closed to in-person operations as of 12:30 p.m. today, Monday, March 16. Instruction will be moved to emergency remote, including synchronous and asynchronous methods. Certain laboratory, clinical and other hands-on classes for which in-person instruction is a requirement may necessitate a make-up lesson, but every effort will be made to pursue virtual learning to the extent possible. Where synchronous virtual instruction is intended, published class meeting times must be observed so that students’ schedules are not disrupted.

The safety and security of our students, faculty, staff and the broader community remain our top priority. We will continue to provide updates regarding the status of the university’s academic and administrative offices as conditions change.

Please continue to check our website and social media channels for the latest information.

If you have any safety concerns, contact OPSEM at 202-274-5050. For all immediate emergencies, call 911.

Thank you for your continued dedication to our students and to UDC’s mission.

Quality Matters Testimonial - Craig Wynne

Profile Picture for Craig Wynne.

Craig Wynne, Ph.D.

Associate Professor of English
College of Arts and Sciences (CAS)

“Quality Matters has transformed my perspective on online instruction.  It helped me to think more critically about what purpose my class activities serve and how they connect to larger learning goals for students.  It also encouraged me to design my shells in a manner that is more user-friendly for students.  I’ve even started applying these concepts to how I designed my in-person courses for the semester.  I’m running my QM-certified ENGL515: Writing Proficiency course this fall and look forward to applying them and seeing the results.”
