Living into COMMUNITY FIRST: Spring On Campus
Regardless of what comes our way in 2021, NNU is committed to being Here for Good, providing the excellent education and incredible community for which we are known.
We look forward to continuing to learn, live and grow in community as we return to campus this spring, carrying with us all we have learned from our successful in-person fall semester. COVID has required us to find new and innovative ways to maintain the incredible NNU experience—and it took our entire community working together—but our students, faculty and staff agree that it’s worth it to be able to be on campus!
As we launch into a new year, we will continue to navigate an ever-changing global pandemic and find creative ways to be respectful, humble and flexible as we put our Community First. Our leadership teams continue to monitor new developments with COVID as we reflect, refine and adapt our plans to keep our community safe and healthy.
Continue to check this page regularly for modifications and updates to our plan.
