Southern Cross to continue studying and working online
Southern Cross University will remain in ‘study/work from home’ mode for an additional week in line with the latest COVID restrictions.
Essential activity practicals and lab work that cannot be done online are the only exceptions for in-person visits to the Lismore, Coffs Harbour and Gold Coast campuses.
The University Libraries and Student Hubs will remain open in a scaled-back capacity. Where possible, students are encouraged to engage online with those services.
Mr Allan Morris, Vice President (Operations), thanked the Southern Cross community for its flexibility.
“We deeply appreciate the efforts students and staff are making to comply with the public health orders and the understanding you have of Southern Cross’s desire to keep these important decisions uniform across all campuses, in two states,” said Mr Morris.
Archivist Elected to Lead Statewide Organization
University of Dayton associate archivist Amy Rohmiller was elected vice president/president-elect of the Society of Ohio Archivists (SOA) at the organization’s June meeting.
Rohmiller has served as a member of SOA’s advocacy and outreach committee since 2018 and as a member of the SOA Council since 2019.
“I am excited to build upon my knowledge and experiences within SOA,” Rohmiller shared. “It feels as though we are truly beginning a new chapter due to the many changes around us all.”
Her election coincides with SOA’s pivot to a virtual annual meeting in response to COVID-19 and the formation of a task force on social justice and Black Lives Matter.
