Protect the Hive: COVID-19 Planning and Resources
Campus Guidelines and Restrictions
The College continues to follow the guidelines and restrictions set forth by the State of Michigan in the MI Safe Start Plan.
Academics
- Considering national health trends and the latest public health guidance, out of an abundance of caution, Kalamazoo College shifted to a fully virtual format for fall term and residence halls are not open.

Please note that we are continuing to carefully monitor public health data and will remain flexible to adjust plans if conditions significantly change.
