Lake Michigan College is closing all campuses to students and non-essential staff on Friday, and all classes tomorrow are canceled. On Monday, the college will reopen with employees back to work during regular business hours, but all next week, there will be no in-person classes. Those are canceled from March 16 through March 20, and online classes will continue as normal. LMC says all classes – where possible – will be delivered online via distance learning starting on Monday, March 23. Information regarding classes that can’t be held that way, such as welding and phlebotomy courses, will come to students directly from faculty. Classes will resume as normal on April 13. Additionally, any events scheduled for all LMC campuses with 100 or more attendees are canceled through April 13, which includes the Blossomtime Festival events Sunday and Monday that had been scheduled for the Mendel Center.
