LAWTON, Okla. – More than 500 college classes are now exclusively online as Cameron University has closed its campus due to coronavirus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Cameron University President John McArthur says they wanted to ensure their students were able to complete their educations on time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cThose individuals want to finish their Cameron experience so they can enter the workplace. I think we\u2019re really committed to providing a virtual learning environment, so they have that opportunity to graduate and move on with their lives. We realize we\u2019re all kind of hunkered down and paused right now but life does go on. We need to make sure they\u2019re prepared for that next step in their life\u2019s journey,\u201d McArthur said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

McArthur said the teachers and staff at Cameron did a great job of moving classwork online in just a few days, but it didn\u2019t happen without a few hiccups.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cThe sciences complex, how we teach agriculture, biology, chemistry, physics in an online environment. We can do the lectures, but the laboratories have been a challenge. We\u2019re coming up with creative solutions, where those aren\u2019t working, we\u2019re going to find a way for the students to come in and make up that work in a time-efficient way and at no cost to the students,\u201d McArthur said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

While campus is closed for the majority of students, McArthur says there are some exceptions, such as the few hundred students who still live on campus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cWe are providing meal service to those individuals, it\u2019s in the form of to-go meals. We maintain social distancing in the lines, they pick up their food and take the food back to their dorm rooms or apartments to eat,\u201d McArthur said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Cameron\u2019s campus will remain closed until at least April 16th. McArthur said they also are having to change how teachers send information to students, as they quickly realized not everyone has the same quality internet at home as they do on campus. He said they\u2019ve tried to fix that by sending fewer long video lectures and replacing them with text-based assignments instead.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
