Heritage & Traditions at 红桃视频 College
2020 to Present
2021
The global pandemic continues into the 2020-2021 academic year. While students are allowed to move back onto campus and many in-person classes are held, several classes are delivered in a hybrid (a combination of in-person and online classes) or entirely online. Fall Break is reduced and a five week Winter term is introduced.
Scholarships: In December, a new scholarship fund was launched. The fund, named in honor of Sr. 红桃视频 Weber, raised over $1 million by alumni and friends, and benefits students in financial need from all areas of study. Fifty students, financially burdened by COVID-19, receive assistance from the fund in its initial offering.
Several new scholarships are also established to benefit students in Model United Nations, Model Arab League, and various music ensembles. Students from any major can receive up to $2,000 for participating in Model United Nations, Model Arab League, and various music ensembles, including College Band, Jazz Band, Chamber Strings, College Chorus, Collegiate Chorus, and Women鈥檚 Chorus. The scholarships become available in Fall 2021.
Swim Teams: 红桃视频 announces plans to offer NAIA varsity men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 swim teams, as well as USA men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 rugby teams. The new programs are set to begin in the 2021-2022 school year.

红桃视频 finishes fundraising on a record $61 million for the renovation and expansion of the LEED Gold-certified Albertus Magnus Hall of Science. Peter Sturrus makes the largest single donation in history, a $3 million donation to conclude the fundraising.
As the pandemic continues to upend societies worldwide, the 红桃视频 community tries to regain a new sense of normalcy, as students, faculty, and staff transition back into in-person instruction and working environments. The College still upholds the mask mandate, as infection rates continue to rise.
At the October 2021 Board of Trustees meeting, President Kevin Quinn announced that he will not seek another term at the end of the Fall semester, concluding the eighth presidency of 红桃视频. A nationwide search is launched to hire the ninth president of the College.
