    4. For people returning from traveling over reading week, we ask that you spend 2 weeks in self-isolation if  you were in a high risk country (see this CDC guidance) or if you were in contact with someone with the virus. If you were in a US city that is heavily impacted by the virus, or if you have traveled by airplane or public transportation, please self-isolate for 1 week.

*The building will be open during the hours posted and during class times.

Please use your ID badge each time you enter the building. In the event of a confirmed COVID-19 case on campus, staff may use building access data to notify individuals of a potential exposure. If you enter the building without your ID badge, please sign in at the reception desk so our staff may notify you in the event of a potential COVID-19 exposure on campus.

Masks are required when entering the building. We have implemented increased, routine cleaning and disinfection of frequently touched surfaces (e.g., door handles, sink handles, drinking fountains, hand railings, and bathroom stalls). Hand sanitizer is available in public areas such as the reception desk and library.

Personal items (e.g., cell phones, other electronics) should be regularly cleaned and sanitized. Items that are difficult to clean or disinfect, such as electronic devices, books, pens, and other learning aids, should not be shared when possible.

Our classroom layouts have been modified to space seating at least 6 feet apart by placing smaller classes in larger rooms. We will continue to offer Digital Live/distance learning to help reduce the number of in-person attendees. Please contact your professor if you have questions about Digital Live or on-campus attendance options for your class.

Communal areas (such as the library, study rooms, and classrooms) will have staggered and restricted use at one time to ensure everyone can stay at least 6 feet apart.

Student support services, such as Soul Care spiritual formation groups, library, digital study groups, IT support services, and phone/internet-based advisement and student success services, continue to be digitally available.

While most of our campus services are available digitally, we recognize the possibility of having a COVID-19 case on campus. Should this occur, the following policies will be enacted:

    • We will close off known affected areas used by the patient for 24 hours.
    • Our staff will clean and disinfect all areas (e.g., offices, bathrooms, and common areas) used by the COVID-19 patient, focusing especially on frequently touched surfaces.
    • Before returning to campus, students who have been sick with COVID-19 symptoms, tested positive for COVID-19, or have been potentially exposed to someone with COVID-19 are encouraged to follow CDC guidance to self-isolate or stay home.
    • Students are asked to work with their professors to ensure they can continue to complete their coursework while following proper social distancing guidelines.
    • Students who have tested positive are asked to notify the Charlotte Dean of Students, Deana Nail ([email protected]).

If you have any questions regarding these policies, please contact our front desk at [email protected]. You can also obtain updated campus information by monitoring your GCTS e-mail or logging into your Canvas account and accessing the Charlotte Registration hub.

We appreciate your continued efforts to keep our campus safe, and we look forward to another great year here at Gordon-Conwell.

June 23, 2020
The Harold Lindsell library on the Gordon-Conwell—Charlotte campus will reopen for limited hours beginning this Wednesday, June 24 at 10:00 am. During the summer, we plan to have the library open four days each week, Wednesday through Saturday between 10:00 am and 4:00 pm.

May 5, 2020
While the campus remains closed due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the campus bookstore will be closed as well. As a result, products like summer course textbooks and diploma frames will not be available for sale. We look forward to reopening the store as soon as it is safe to do so.
