Please
note: Starting January 2017 the Goodwin
College Nursing Program will change to the Test of Essential Academic Skills
(TEAS) for its pre-entrance exam. Please contact Janice Watts, Department
Chair, at jwatts@goodwin.edu if
questions.
Please note: The East Hartford Police Department will be using
College-owned, unoccupied properties at 35 and 39 Willowbrook St. for police
K-9 training today, June 13, from approximately 4 to 8 p.m. Facilities will
have appropriate signage posted, and no Goodwin-related traffic is expected at
that time. We just wanted the community to be aware in case police cars or
activity are seen in the area.
Also, we have just been notified that as of this afternoon, the
intersection of Ensign and Riverside is closed, as mentioned in last week’s
message to the community. Please follow signs for detours.
Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. Please contact Rich
Vibberts at rvibberts@goodwin.edu
with questions.
Beginning the week of June 13, Goodwin is overseeing the
reconstruction of a portion of Ensign Street at Riverside Drive. The road will
be closed for approximately two weeks. Detour signs will direct traffic through
King Court to Willow Street to access Riverside Drive. Total construction
period will be six to eight weeks. For those coming from Main Street, turning
directly onto Willow Street is probably a preferred alternative route. Although
this will be a temporary inconvenience, the new roadway and sidewalks, improved
lighting, and emergency blue light towers on either side of the highway will
benefit everyone. If you have questions or concerns, please contact Rich
Vibberts at rvibberts@goodwin.edu or
860-913-2023.
The
Bookstore will be closed Thursday, June 30, for annual inventory. This closure
may impact students purchasing textbooks for Module 2 Summer courses. Textbooks
are currently in stock for all Module 2 courses. Students may also place book
orders online at www.goodwin.bkstr.com. Any online orders placed during
the June 30 closure will be filled on re-opening of business Friday, July
1. For questions, contact the Bookstore at 860-727-6721.
