The Work Ahead: A Message from President Carey (News 1048) ptascio Tue, 06/16/2020 - 09:54 The Work Ahead: A Message from President CareyPresident Carey outlines how the Iona community will do its part in creating a future that moves toward justice and non-violence. June 9, 2020

Friday night another tragedy unfolded in New Rochelle, less than a mile from the Iona College campus. A black man was shot and killed in an altercation with a police officer. This event surely adds to the trauma of our community. Whatever the details of this case, it is yet another reminder that there is no time to wait: we must find better ways to live together, and that takes work.

Education may seem too slow, too pondering, too tame to be the answer. But better education is an essential part of what we need. From universal standards in police training to understanding the historical underpinnings of social, economic, and cultural structures, from the evolution of modern technology to the psychology of personal development, progress will be inadequate without effective education across all sectors of society. In addition to preparing us for careers, an effective education prepares us for responding to difficult situations with insight and an ability to understand alternative points of view; it also makes us alert to the structures of society that dictate so much of our experience.

Those of us in higher education can do more now. For too long, the expertise of the academy has failed to adequately influence public awareness and discourse. We have expertise in criminal justice, sociology, psychology, economics, education, health sciences, risk management, business, and public history as well as the disciplines that help us to understand the human condition — its complexity, its limitations, and its potential — through art and expression. No longer can we attend only to what transpires in our classroom, our academic conference, or our journal publications. Society needs us to engage in the moment, to shape the conversations underway so that we and others learn from them, and to envision a future that moves toward justice and non-violence. At Iona, we will sharpen our focus on the pressing issues of our time, deepen inquiry as a community of learners, and prepare our students to become the leaders of change our society needs.

In focusing on education as a means for social reform, we will not overlook immediate steps we can and must take. We need to speak out, we need to vote, we need to expand our circle of neighbors and friends, we need to resist injustice wherever we encounter it. But these actions will not be sustained if we ignore the difficult work of looking internally to examine what is in our hearts and souls. We must recognize the complexity of feelings, attitudes and biases that influence our actions. We must acknowledge that there are inclinations and emotions, which, left unchecked, can push us in directions we do not want to go. We must understand that being strong means getting better, not holding on to calcified prejudices and dispositions. Strength of character requires constant change through greater self-awareness and personal development—and through the hard work of listening to others. This work is almost impossible without effective education.

Iona College is a community of inquirers committed to the pursuit of truth and justice grounded in faith. With open hearts and a dogged commitment to a better tomorrow, we can make a difference. To start this process, I have reached out to campus leaders over the past several days to begin the conversations and the work we need to do. We will garner the expertise across campus to collaborate on ways we can have the biggest impact on our students, each other, and our community. Anything less would be a betrayal of our calling as educators and as members of the Iona community.

A Message from President Carey (News 1046) ptascio Tue, 06/16/2020 - 09:47 A Message from President CareyPresident Carey addresses the Iona community regarding the murder of George Floyd and systemic racism. June 1, 2020

To the Iona Community:

I have been hesitant to write this message. Not because I am unsure about its need, not because I do not share in the outrage and sadness over George Floyd’s murder, not because I do not know that this is another example, in a seemingly endless list, of racially motivated brutality and injustice; certainly not because I believe that the disease of American racism is too complex to tackle. I hesitate because statements like this don’t seem to accomplish much. Much of what I wish to say has been said too many times by others more qualified, and yet our country still suffers and seethes. Nonetheless, I feel compelled to speak out to our community this morning.

This past week I released the highlights of our plan for reopening Iona College for the fall semester in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. We were able to share that plan because over the past couple of months we have gained a better understanding of COVID-19, of how to mitigate its transmission, and, most importantly, of how to protect as best we can our community. The last few days remind us that we face another chronic pandemic, racism, that demands equal, even greater, attention and resolve, both personally and politically. Just as we have dedicated ourselves to reorganizing our operations in response to COVID-19, we will dedicate ourselves to the hard work required to respond to racial injustice.

As committed and sincere educators, we believe in the power of education to effect change. We tell ourselves that education is the great equalizer, the means to elevate all of us to a higher moral plane. We believe too that we are the drivers of social progress. Our mission statements have always spoken to the pursuit of truth and justice; in more recent times these statements of purpose emphasize and celebrate diversity.

Today, all around us, we see awful evidence that educational missions such as ours are critical for our social and political well-being as well as for our personal development. If these missions are failing to stem the tide of racism or to quell the violence it nourishes, we must rededicate ourselves to the values those missions espouse but find better ways to realize them on our streets, in our neighborhoods, in our cities—and on our own campus and in our own classrooms.

Edmund Rice founded the Christian Brothers 218 years ago to combat discrimination and oppression by bringing the gift of education to the poor people of Ireland. We must honor that mission by being as attentive to the small and large violence of the racism around us, and within us, as we are to the ravages of the novel coronavirus. To call either an invisible enemy is to deny the realities that threaten our common good; to confront these realities with strong hearts and minds is what it means to fight the good fight.

Iona College Announces Tentative Return to Campus with In-Person Classes to Begin August 10 (News 825)

Iona College Announces Tentative Return to Campus with In-Person Classes to Begin August 10 (News 825) ptascio Thu, 05/28/2020 - 15:36 Iona College Announces Tentative Return to Campus with In-Person Classes to Begin August 10Iona College President Seamus Carey, Ph.D., today announced a tentative return to campus for the fall semester with in-person classes scheduled to begin three weeks early on August 10. May 28, 2020

Iona College President Seamus Carey, Ph.D., today announced a tentative return to campus for the fall semester with in-person classes scheduled to begin three weeks early on August 10.

Please see the following letter sent to the Iona community:

With the Memorial Day weekend behind us and better news about the trajectory of COVID-19 in our region, we can turn our attention to the summer and fall. In addition to managing the work required to complete the spring semester, our task force has been building plans for how we might return to campus for the upcoming academic year. All of our plans have been developed with the health and safety of our community as the highest priority. We have consulted with public health experts and colleague institutions while attending to CDC and New York State guidelines every step along the way. The plans outlined below are contingent upon New York State approval of in-person classes for the fall semester.

Returning to campus will require significant changes in how we operate, but I am confident the qualities that make Iona a special learning community will be magnified under our new circumstances. We are not simply reacting to the crisis; we are envisioning a new future. Our plans not only incorporate best practices for health and safety, they accelerate our initiatives for innovative pedagogy, student support and community engagement, each of which deepens the Iona mission. We are not merely replacing one mode of course delivery with another; we are integrating the best of both to create dynamic courses to address the issues of our time. We are not just countering each emerging fact with a new policy; we are integrating our response into the curriculum and student learning. We are not simply shoring up institutional operations; we are engaging with the community to provide support to businesses, school children, health care workers and families.

While we are managing expenses carefully to find savings, we are not retrenching. We recently launched a new nursing program and new degrees in entrepreneurship. We formed a campus-wide strategic innovation committee to tap into the creativity residing across campus. Students, faculty and staff are at the forefront of strategic thinking and tactical planning as we reimagine our future.

We know that new facts about the pandemic will continue to surface. We are closely monitoring all information as we work toward a comprehensive operational plan to guide us through the upcoming academic year. As we continue to finalize our course of action, there are time-sensitive highlights we want to share with you now so that you can plan appropriately for the fall semester. Further information to flesh out these highlights will be shared in the coming weeks, and we appreciate your patience as we define specific details.

For scheduling purposes, it is important to note that Iona College will begin its fall semester on August 10, 2020, and end the semester on November 23. Students will not return to campus after the Thanksgiving break. This schedule advances the semester by three weeks to minimize student travel and exposure during the fall semester. If in-person classes are delayed or cancelled by New York State, we will re-evaluate the start date of the academic calendar.

With the exception of courses that are designated as distance learning (DL), all courses will be offered in a hybrid format so that students can take any course, or portions thereof, online or in person. Students or faculty with underlying health conditions should consider using the online option. By preparing courses to be both online and in person, we can accommodate students and faculty who might need to be away from campus during the semester. Moreover, such flexibility will make us ready to transition to full online delivery if circumstances require.

Prior to starting classes, students, faculty and staff will be required to have a test for the COVID-19 virus. We are proud to partner with our neighbors at Montefiore Hospital in New Rochelle to administer tests for members of the Iona community. Antibody tests will also be available for those who want one. We will work with Montefiore throughout the academic year to provide health care related to the COVID-19 virus for our students, faculty and staff. We will follow up shortly with additional information and options regarding testing.

In addition to getting tested prior to starting classes, we will work with all members of the Iona community to monitor symptoms related to COVID-19. Daily temperature checks will be available before entering classes or the workplace. Iona will work with students, faculty and staff to make sure you have the tools required to track symptoms. Students and employees will be called upon to self-isolate and get tested upon manifesting symptoms. CDC guidelines will be followed for addressing symptoms and positive test cases.

Masks will be required in all classes and wherever adequate social distancing is not possible. We will increase spacing in all classrooms and dining halls by 50 percent. Sanitizer will be available and accessible across campus and rooms will be sanitized regularly throughout the day. Entry, egress and stairways in buildings on campus will be organized to maximize spacing and minimize face-to-face exposure. Elevators will be sanitized regularly, and social distancing will be required.

We will reduce occupancy in residence halls to a maximum of two students per room and require social distancing in common spaces. Community bathrooms will be sanitized regularly, and social distancing will be required.

Remote work will continue for staff who can perform their roles from home to increase social distancing in offices.

Once again, we are sharing these highlights so that you can plan accordingly. Many further details for each of these initiatives will be shared in due course. These details will describe protocols for responding to positive COVID-19 cases on campus, procedures for food preparation and distribution, event sizes, campus visitors, athletic competitions and spectators, contact tracing, human resource policies and more. All of these details will be included in the forthcoming comprehensive plan. We appreciate your patience as we collect the data we need to provide the most informative and actionable plan possible.

Let me conclude by sharing an observation of what has transpired over the past two months. The commitment and resilience of the Iona community is akin to what I would describe as a Gael Force. There is a strength building from within as we work our way through this crisis and this strength is the reason we will emerge a better institution. From faculty innovation to administrators working seven days a week, from students thriving in transition to staff who have intensified their focus on the work that needs to be done, a renewed sense of purpose is growing at Iona.

We know that the coming year will test us. There are challenges ahead we can see and others we cannot. As educators, our responsibility is to work for a better future. If we continue to be our best; if we work with each other and for our students; if we are guided by the ideals that infuse our endeavors and lives with meaning – the ideals of seeking truth, working for justice, caring with compassion – the challenges we face will only make us better.

Thank you for your support and dedication.

Sincerely,
Seamus Carey, Ph.D.
President, Iona College
