Wieboldt Hall Classroom(s) +

The final pieces of plexi-glass was delivered Fri. Sept. 18. All student and faculty PPE are laid out and the classroom is ready for Mon. Sept. 21, 2020 when the aMPPA students arrive in this space @ 9:30am.

First piece of plexi-glass is hung up in front of the lectern at Wieboldt Hall. More plexi-glass to come.

In addition to the building HEPA filtered air, there will be additional HEPA filtered air cleaners distributed around the classroom for added air quality control. In addition to HEPA air cleaners, hand-sanitizer/face masks/tissue stands are located outside of all common hallways.

Almost ready for the Fall 2020 face-to-face aMPPA (Accelerated Master’s in Public Policy and Administration) students! The hanging plexiglass is scheduled to be hung this week as this has been delivered (see RED arrow). We are awaiting the delivery of two additional mobile plexiglass that will be stationed adjacent to the lectern.

Tables and table-barriers placed in ALL the classrooms has been zip-tied together to limit movement.

Faculty will also be receiving their own PPE on the lectern as they arrive.

Student PPE will be in the classroom when they arrive.

Each student will have an assigned number on the table. The idea is to have each student sit only at that seat to prevent musical chairs.

As requested from the academic group, two additional student rooms are available for our aMPPA students. (see photo below)

The “NEW” Global Marketing signage are placed throughout Wieboldt Hall. There are many similar signage throughout the building and campus. Drinking fountains have also been “x’ed-out” – NOT fill stations. (see below)

The Wieboldt Hall Classrooms are coming along. Tables are serving double duty as barriers and student desks. One-way floor decal arrows are being installed. One Entry door and One Exit door will be the “norm”. A mote area surrounds the faculty area. All are still work in progress so stay tuned for more updates. I can say though that Tables are Six Feet Apart. So sings Alec Benjamin- Check it out : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6d9XjnV2iKA

The Faculty requested a classroom just for them. I said okay. Room 702 was converted to be their own faculty lounge with two chairs in the event there is a student/teacher conference. Yes, 6′ apart…

The 7th floor hallways furniture has been removed and stored away. (BEFORE and AFTER images below)

Classroom are converted to store all extra furniture (see photos below) – we may have a Storage Wars sale soon (LOL!) – you know, that show where there is a Auction of ALL items in dormant storage lockers. (click onto the word Storage Wars above to see full meaning)

Wieboldt Hall Classroom 703, 704, 705 will be fully opened, rearranged, and prepared for our Accelerated Masters of Public Policy and Administration (aMPPA) cohort beginning Fall 2020. Shown below is the original configuration of the classroom space. Current capacity for all three classrooms is 126. After the configuration, the classroom will accommodate up to 27 students, if necessary. (extra space – Yay!)

Classrooms 703, 704, 705 being configured for the best possible solution with a 6 feet radius between all student’s workspace. Work in progress…Stay tuned.
