SUFFERN – Classes at Rockland Community College will begin on Tuesday, September 1, the college President Dr. Michael Baston announced.

Most of the academic offerings will continue to be held remotely. Laboratories, clinical experiences and other select courses will have in-person instruction and will follow social distancing and other health and safety guidelines, and students will continue to receive online support services.

The college will bring back on campus no more than 30 percent of its student, faculty, and staff populations in an effort to reduce density at each of its locations.

RCC has been in a tele-campus mode since mid-March.

CDC-approved face coverings will be required to be worn at all times by everyone on campus when six-foot social distancing cannot be accomplished.

The college also provides hand sanitizer throughout the main campus as well as its off-site facilities. Ultraviolent technology will be used to disinfect items that cannot be touched by wet cleaning materials and Plexiglas screens have been installed in many locations where students must interact directly with campus staff.
