Keep Teaching in Special Circumstances:  Circumstances may arise when you need to keep teaching, but not face-to-face, such as campus closure related to inclement weather, widespread illness, unexpected events, etc. Preparation is key to being ready to continue teaching on short notice. Here are actions and resources to help you move online quickly. Good News! Every Creighton course already has a BlueLine Course Site available with all your students enrolled! All you have to do is add content, work within the site, and communicate with your students. 

The CFE administration and staff are working Monday-Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
