In the interest of minimizing disruption and erring on the side of caution, Florida Poly will continue with remote offerings for Summer Session B. As you are wrapping up the spring term and thinking about how you'd like to spend your summer, we encourage you to visit with an academic success coach for guidance or navigate to the Registrar's homepage for registration assistance.
I hope you're all staying well and have found a new normal in this challenging time we're all in. This last month has somehow flown by as we adjusted to our quick shift to remote education and the significant changes to our working environment.
As we end this semester, I ask you to please take a minute and reflect on all you have achieved this academic year. It has been a challenging year, full of growth and opportunity. Each Florida Poly student has been asked to stand up and demonstrate resilience and adaptability. Kudos to each and every Phoenix for your spirit and hard work. I couldn't be prouder of who we are as a University!
We all have concerns today that we never would have dreamed of a few short weeks ago. We also all have new financial obligations stemming from COVID-19 that are adding even more stress.
I hope this finds you healthy and having settled in as best as you are able to focus now on those fast-approaching final exams.
I'm happy to introduce the Florida Poly Virtual Student Union, a digital hub for students that is designed to make remote learning and campus engagement - from wherever you are - a little bit easier. Need-to-know resources, programs, services, and student events have been organized into one place.
I hope everyone is staying well and adjusting to your new remote environments. Working and learning remotely is a big adjustment that we've all had to make. I'm pleased to hear about and see many situations where our students are doing what Phoenixes do best--rising together.
The work everyone has been doing to keep our University running smoothly and educating our students is nothing short of inspiring. With remote work, remote instruction and limited on-campus staff, we are doing our part to minimize the spread of COVID-19 and keep our community safe.

By now you have likely heard that Gov. Ron DeSantis has issued a stay-at-home order for the State of Florida beginning Friday, April 3, at 12:01 a.m. You may be wondering what that means for you and for Florida Poly.
