Please see the following note from Sarah Reiter, the Faculty Director of Online Learning. It will be important to note that registering in your regular online Term 1 and Term 2 classes will still need to happen through Campus Web, but cross-registering for Summer Session "virtual" live classes will be a form you submit. Please speak with me to discuss your plans!
Dear online students,
I am writing to let you know that today Vermont Law School made the decision to continue with virtual residential classes during Summer 2020.
How this impacts online students:
1. Register for your summer asynchronous classes NOW! Our truly online summer classes will go on as planned, AND you need to REGISTER as soon as possible. We expect an increase in residential students seeking remote options, and we will need to plan accordingly should we have waitlists for classes capped at 20 students.
2. Consider synchronous summer options. You will have the opportunity to register for synchronous options, in addition to your asynchronous courses. Vermont Law School will offer the same residential courses we had planned, but through the virtual synchronous (live) model (e.g., Teams, Zoom). You will have access to synchronous courses taught by top-notch faculty and our summer residential program. These courses are intensive; the synchronous option only works if you are able to “go to school full-time.” It is a great opportunity should you find yourself in that position. You may only sign up for one synchronous option per Online Term, in addition to your asynchronous courses.
Your advisor, Genevieve (copied here), and all of the faculty and staff at Vermont Law School remain available to assist you in choosing and registering for summer classes.
We are still planning on holding Commencement on August 8 and joyfully celebrating the Class of 2020 as a community.
With wishes of good health and strength to you all,
Sarah
