South Plains College announces spring 2021 calendar changes

 

LEVELLAND – South Plains College will begin its Spring 2021 semester on Jan. 19, 2021 across all campuses. SPC staff will report to work on Jan. 4, 2021. Faculty will report on Jan. 11, 2021. 

According to Dr. Robin Satterwhite, president of South Plains College, the primary adjustment to the calendar will be to compress the Spring Interim semester into a shorter time frame as well as preventing any overlapping semesters which create financial aid issues.

“We will have a safer start to our semester by adding a week between the holidays and the time students arrive on campus,” he said.

All SPC campuses will be closed to student and community traffic the week of Jan. 4, 2021 through Jan. 8, 2021. Students are encouraged to contact the college by telephone, email, virtual appointments or online chat. All offices will be available in-person on Jan. 11, 2021.

The Spring 2021 Semester will run from Jan. 19 to May 13. Graduation is set for May 14. Dr. Satterwhite said the college will address the potential for a graduation ceremony based on the community status in the spring.
