Tech Returning to Normal in Fall, In Person Commencement, & More Wednesday on KFYO Mornings with Dave King and Matt Martin, The President of Texas Tech University Dr. Lawrence Shovanec joined Dave and Matt to talk about Tech's current COVID-19 numbers, how the governor's recent announcement has and will change Tech's policies, higher education funding, their attendance numbers, Tech athletics, the veterinary school, and more. The discussion started with the state of COVID-19 at Texas Tech and what safety policies they are looking at going forward. Schovanec said that, according to Texas Tech's COVID-19 dashboard, they only have 1 student and 1 staff member with COVID-19 at the moment. Schovanec compares this to the state they were in last Fall where Tech was reporting hundreds of new cases, and says that they are in a good spot now. He went on to say that he is currently working on a memo that he hopes to get out this week that will announce their plan to get back to normal operations by this Fall. Dr. Schovanec is trying to get the announcement out quickly so that people can make decisions on where they will go to school next semester.
