***REMAINING 2020 EVENTS CANCELLED***
Ensuring the safety of our students, faculty, and staff is of paramount importance to College of DuPage. The World Health Organization's declaration of the COVID-19 (the novel coronavirus) pandemic confirms that we are facing a serious public health threat. While the College has experienced no confirmed cases of the coronavirus to date, we will be taking the preventative measures outlined below to reduce the potential for a coronavirus incident on campus. Our primary objective with these procedures is to reduce the density of people on campus. Effective immediately, all events (internal, hosted and rental at the main campus, COD regional centers, and the MAC) for the remainder of the spring 2020 semester are cancelled. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and look forward to rescheduling this event in the future.
