Semi-Weekly Message to the Physics Community, Wednesday, August 12, 2020

Dear Physics Community,

LOTS of things are happening.  Massachusetts is moving to Phase 3 of the opening while MIT moves to its Phase 2.  For more about MIT in the Fall, Chancellor Barnhardt wrote to the City of Cambridge a letter detailing what will happen in the Fall and Medical Director Cecilia Stuopis made a presentation to the City of Cambridge about MIT’s plans for testing a medical care in the Fall.  There are also updated travel policies for the MIT community.

In the Fall, remote teaching and community building will start.  Here are two new tools that MIT has acquired to help online. Teach remote has training sessions for faculty and new TA’s.  If you are planning to send off-campus students, see this information on remote making about the rules surrounding sending things off-campus.

More Friday…

Stay safe,

Peter
