For months, CC faculty members have shown their commitment to our students and their educational experience. Exceptional teaching has continued even as classes shifted between in-person, flex, hybrid, and distanced. As remarkable as all of CC’s faculty have been in the classroom, 30 faculty have also volunteered in other ways to support the CC community. From building face shields to serving as contact tracers to delivering food and mail to students in quarantine, our faculty continue to demonstrate their commitment to the college and the well-being of our community. They have also been serving on critical committees such as the Scientific Advisory Group, COVID Advisory Leadership Team, and the Faculty Advisory Committee to the co-presidents and provost. We are all in this together, and our faculty are showing us the way. Thank you faculty!
