GODFREY — Thanks to the success of its COVID-19 safety precautions, the Lewis and Clark Community College Music Department hasn’t missed a beat while holding in-person classes.
“We have all computers surrounded with plexiglass, and we reduced our lab from 12 computers down to eight to space students out,” said L&C Music Department Coordinator and Professor Louis Michael. “Additionally, we’ve installed plexiglass dividers on our stage. Our performers are separated at all times. We’ve been really successful at being cautious.”

GODFREY — Lewis & Clark Community College President Ken Trzaska provided the board with a budget update Tuesday night.
On the revenue side, the school is projecting a loss in tuition and fees compared to the budget, he said. Trzaska said the loss is lower compared to last month, picking up more than $1.75 million in tuition fees in November.
“We’re down, but I’m hopeful that we are trending in the right direction,” Trzaska said.
The total fiscal year projected expenses dropped by “several hundred thousand dollars,” he said. Salaries and benefit expenses remain unchanged.
