In a carefully crafted and well-researched effort, Southwest Texas Junior College has decided to continue with remote instruction for the Spring 2021 semester. This recommendation is made with a priority of commitment to safeguarding the health and welfare of every member of the SWTJC community and our shared responsibility to take steps to minimize the risk of COVID-19 across our institution.
On Tuesday, March 2, 2021, Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed Executive Order GA 34 that removes the face-covering mandate. The Executive Order takes effect on March 10, 2021. The SWTJC Re Open Committee is in the process of reviewing this Executive Order and will provide guidance as more information is revealed.
However, SWTJC will continue to follow the face-covering protocol while on campus.
