Hogg Cycle Shop customizes cycle for amputee By Rob Kiser

DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE — It would be easy for Ron Anthony to be bitter at what life has thrown at him. Instead, Anthony can be seen riding his modified motorcycle with the biggest smile on his face — thanks Chris Lovett of Hogg Cycle Shop in Greenville, Ohio. Anthony, a Piqua, Ohio, resident, first survived stage 4 cancer back in 2008. If that wasn’t enough, Anthony had a car pull out in front of him while riding his motorcycle last Labor Day. Five weeks later, he had to have his right leg amputated — but Anthony was not about to just accept his fate. He was determined to get back on a motorcycle. “I contacted the shop I normally dealt with in North Dayton about modifying a bike for me,” Anthony said. “Because, I couldn’t use the foot brake anymore (because of a prosthetic on his right leg). They said they didn’t want anything to do with it because of liability issues.” He found the same response from every bike shop he contacted. “So, I put an ad on Facebook,” Anthony said. “A couple people told me they might be able to do it, but weren’t sure.

That scared me that they weren’t sure, so I didn’t want to go with them.” That’s when Lovett stepped in. “I just wanted to help the guy,” Lovett said. “So, I contacted him and told him I could help him.” Anthony had no idea what a dream meeting that would turn into. “I knew there were kits in England for doing the modification,” Anthony said. “Those are $1,600 and it doesn’t even include labor. But, Chris (Lovett) told me he could do it with parts he had at the shop and that would work out better.” Lovett, along with Brian Emerick, Tyler Bridges, Mike Bragg, and Joe Amlin all contributed to making the modifications for the cycle. “There is nothing I can’t engineer,” Lovett said with a smile. “I probably spent $6 on parts at the hardware store. Other than that, everything came from the shop here.” Then, he gave Anthony a call, who was excited with the news. “I asked him what I was going to owe him, so I could get the money I was going to need together,” Anthony said. “And he told me there was no charge. That he just wanted to get me back on a bike. I couldn’t See CYCLE | 3A

WWII veteran tells his story ‘We had a job to do and we did it the best we could’ By Vivian Blevins

Special to The Early Bird

DARKE COUNTY — If all goes as planned, on July 4, 2020, Harry Christy, 98, will be riding in the Miami County of Ohio parade, organized by the Miami Valley Veterans Museum. His driver on this occasion will be his son Jerry, a U.S. Air Force medic in the Vietnam War. Born March 25, 1922, Christy graduated from Piqua High School in Ohio in 1939, married Anna Marie Wack on Veterans Day in 1942, was inducted into the U.S. Army on Nov. 19, 1942, and reported for duty on Dec. 28, 1942. Christy soon found himself in the heart of actions that would determine the fate of a significant part of the world. Christy missed the Normandy “D” Day landing on June 6, 1944, because he was granted a five-day leave to visit his wife and see their firstborn son, Thomas. He learned of the invasion when the train on which he was making the 24-hour trip to Piqua stopped to pick up passengers at Portsmouth, Ohio. He reports, “We expected the invasion, and we knew what was ahead of us. And the challenges would be significant, lifealtering.” By August of 1944, Christy boarded an LST and set out across the English Channel to Omaha Beach. The next nine plus months of Christy’s life were grim, horrific with grueling work that had to be done to save the world from the Nazi regime. Omaha Beach at Normandy had suffered the highest casualties during Operation Overlord, and over 2,000 U.S. troops were killed, wounded or MIA. Christy reports that in the twomonth interim between the assault and his arrival: “When we debarked in France , there were some remnants of destruction — tanks and items in the water — but the deceased had been removed.” Christy’s unit then began 249 consecutive days in combat in France, Belgium, Luxembourg, and Germany

as part of General George Patton’s 176th Field Artillery Battalion Third Army, sleeping only on the ground or in foxholes. His unit reinforced divisions that needed help and supported the 26th, 80th, and 35th Infantry and the 4th, 6th, and 12th Armored. As Christy reflects on his participation in the Battle of the Bulge in the heavily-forested Ardennes region, the German surprise attack on Allied forces on Dec. 18, 1944, the compromised supply lines, the fatigue of combat, the bitter cold, he writes in his memoir, “War is war. It is killed or be killed.” In regard to his part in the decimation a German battalion of perhaps

200 soldiers, he indicates, “I am not proud of what we did that day, but we had a job to do and we did it the best we could. If we had not done what we did, who knows how many American soldiers would have been killed in the following days of combat? It was cold, about 12 degrees below zero with a foot or more of snow on the ground.” Christy speaks with joy all these years later as he describes the day the clouds lifted and the American Air Force swooped in to save the day — Christmas Day, 1944. The Battle of the Bulge was over on Jan. 25, 1945, but the cost had See VETERAN | 4A

COLUMBUS — Though 2020 has not necessarily been the happiest of years, one positive thing is happening for Ohio drivers who prefer their cars have a sleeker look up front. As of July 1, 2020, passenger vehicles in Ohio are no longer required to

have a front license plate. As a result of House Bill 62, which the Ohio General Assembly passed in 2019, Ohio now joins 20 other states in getting rid of the front license plate requirement. Supporters of the measure cited cost as one reason for the change, with an estimated

$1.5 million saved. This comes despite reservations from many law enforcement agencies in the Buckeye State, which have argued removing the front plate requirement on vehicles will hinder their criminal and accident investigations.

Ohio drivers nonetheless are still required to have a plate on the rear of their vehicles, as well as up-todate registration. Failure to do so will result in a citation and fine. Commercial tractors, however, are still required to have both front and back plates.

GREENVILLE — Members of the the Greenville American Legion Post 140 and the Darke County Disabled American Veterans (DAV) conducted a flag retirement ceremony at the American Legion on Tuesday morning. DAV Commander Robert Foster was in command of the ceremony. “We thank thee for our country and its flag, and the liberty for which it stands. To thee we commit our worn and unserviceable flags to the purging fire. As they yield their substance to the fire, may the holy light spread upon us and renewed devotion to our God and our great country” are words that were spoken during the ceremony. Ken Wombold of the American Legion and DAV commanded the honor guard to salute the flags and the country they stand for, and Tom McGee of the American Legion retired the flags. Foster sounded “Taps” along with echo. A three-shot volley also took place. Others taking part in the ceremony were: Rick Hyatt, Fred Dean, Keith Denman, Marty Meyer and Lanny Brenner of the American Legion, and Stephen Eldred and Leslie Cantell of the DAV. Brenner said between 500 and 800 flags were burned atop pipes on a steel frame to keep them off the ground. Flags that were burned have been dropped off at the American Legion drop box.

Versailles FFA receives ODA grant VERSAILLES — Versailles FFA was recently informed that they received an Agricultural and Rural Community Outreach Program (ARCOP) Grant through the Ohio Department of Agriculture. The ARCOP program was available to Ohio FFA chapters to fund community development projects in the areas of educational agricultural programs, agriculture awareness and promotion and agriculture and food economic development. These projects are to address the needs of farmers and rural individuals, families and communities, agricultural education and the economic development of rural areas and should be in collaboration with a substantial agency, a governmental entity, or other long-standing organization. The theme for 2020 ARCOP Grant is to teach children the origin of the food they eat and helps promote fresh, healthy foods in communities. Projects should align with these principles, with an emphasis on decreasing food insecurity, getting fresh foods to communities or helping farm to school efforts. The ACROP projects have to take place from now to December 2020. As part of the grant Versailles FFA recently purchased the Versailles Council of Churches with a new See FFA | 3A

believe it.” When Anthony went to pick up the bike, he still wasn’t believing there was no charge. “I was thinking I probably misunderstood something, so I asked him again how much I owed him and he told me there was no charge,” Anthony said. Lovett made sure the bike was safe. “I rode it around for a couple weeks, testing it out,” Lovett said. Then came the big moment. “I didn’t want to go out on the road right away, because I was a little nervous,” Anthony said. “So, we took it over to the Darke County Fairgrounds and road it around there a couple hundred times.” Then he took it out on the road. “He was gone so long, I didn’t think he was coming back,” Lovett said. “Ron (Anthony) is a great guy. I love that guy. You couldn’t wipe the smile off his face.” And that was payment enough for Lovett. “He said my smile was his payment,” Anthony said. “I have to admit, when I got on the bike for the first time, I teared up a little bit. Because, I wasn’t sure this was ever going to happen.” A few weeks later, Anthony came over to the Greenville Cruise-In. “I wore shorts because I wanted people to see my prosthetic leg,” Anthony said. “It was a pretty chilly night.” So, when it was time to go home, Anthony figured he was in for a cold ride — but, Lovett had other ideas. They called him into the bike shop and provided him with pants, a hat and other items to make sure he had a warm ride home. “He even took the jacket off his back and gave it to me,” Anthony said. “They said, you can’t ride home the way you are — you will freeze. My wife brought the stuff back a week later and tried to give him $100 as a tip and he wouldn’t take it.” Lovett said the reason is simple. “This about Ron (Anthony), this not about me,” he said. “But, I have to believe there are other amputees out there I can help. There has got to be.” Which is one reason Anthony wanted to get the

various crypto equipment in the Pentagon and the D.C. area. Christy’s son Jerry graduated from Piqua Catholic High School in 1965, not a good time for young men as the reality that they faced was the Vietnam War. Jerry says, “I didn’t want to be drafted into the Army and carry a weapon, so I joined the Air Force and became a medic. My parents’ patriotism had a tremendous impact on me, so I wanted to serve my country as I had been taught that freedom is not free.” Jerry served as a medic in Okinawa, Vietnam (Bien Hoa Air Base) and California. Of Vietnam, his most memorable experience was “teaching English to the Vietnamese kids and providing health care to Vietnamese villagers.” The era was a difficult period, and Jerry rarely speaks about his many experiences there. After his military service, Jerry used his G.I. benefits to become a registered nurse. Most of his career was spent in the cardiology units and teaching in his field. His 41-year career took him from Stanford Medical Center to Miami Valley Hospital with several years in hospitals near Knoxville, Tenn. Son Donald loved American history classes on World War II, because he was permitted to take a few of his father’s souvenirs for show-and-tell: a German

helmet, a piece of shrapnel, and a Nazi armband. After graduating from high school and working for a time at the Hartzell main office, he says, “I just felt I needed a change in my life and needed to move on and grow up.” He indicates that his parents neither encouraged nor discouraged him from joining the military: “It was a decision 100 percent on at least my part. I looked up to my two older brothers, Thomas and Jerry, as the main reason why I joined the Air Force since they were both members of the U.S. Air Force, too. I joined in March of 1974, went to Lackland for basic and advanced training as a security guard.” Donald’s military years took him to the Industrial Air Center at Roswell, New Mexico; to Davis Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson, Arizona; to a British air force base in Cypress; to Lajes Field in the Azores; and to Cannon Air Force Base in Clovis, New Mexico. Many of his assignments required top security clearance. After leaving the Air Force, Donald spent 20 years as a police officer and a detective in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Donald looks on his brothers and father as “role models and instilling in me patriotism and loyalty to the U.S.” Another of Christy’s sons, Rick, chose the Air Force (1985 to 1992). Rick

served in Desert Storm and was a Phantom Jet Mechanic. His family was stationed at George Air Force Base in California. He later worked as an engine mechanic for Delta Airlines for 26 years in Atlanta. Rick died suddenly of a heart attack in 2018 and is buried in the National Veterans Cemetery in Canton, Georgia. The tradition of service in the Christy family, however, moves on through Rick’s son, Sean. Sean, a 2011 graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy and a Captain has been selected for promotion to Major. He and his family are stationed at the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska. Sean served in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. Sean says, of his family’s influence on him, “My dad had a large impact mostly by not attempting to have an impact. He was careful to not push me to go to the Air Force Academy, and, in turn, seeing how much it meant to him probably helped me make the decision.” All that sense of service was passed to him from Harry, his father, my grandfather. In conclusion, I want to give a shout out to Christy’s daughter Susan whose assistance was invaluable in providing materials and helping me sort out this complicated story of the Christy Family’s service to our great nation.

glimpse of General Patton in his jeep on May 1, 1945, near Regensburg, Germany. The sad reality is my memory of all those who gave their lives and didn’t come back to the USA to their wives and families.” Christy returned to the states on the USS Augusta and remembers seeing the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor, USO boats, and people waving signs “Welcome Home.” On December 4, 1945, he met his Anna Marie, Tom, and his parents at the train station in Columbus, Ohio. Christy went to work at Hartzell Fan in Piqua, Ohio, at 85 cents an hour on Jan. 3, 1946, and retired 41 years later on March 31, 1987. His legacy does not stop there as four of his sons and his youngest grandson decided that they would serve as well. Christy’s oldest son, Thomas, was the first to join the military and chose the U.S. Air Force. He had just completed courses in computer science and had a job operating an Addressograph-Multigraph computer. He says, “I knew my draft number was close and wanted to use my electronics ability that the Army could not guarantee. I got my draft notice when I was already in basic training in the Air Force.” Thomas excelled in electronics and spent his time in the military operating

Friends take to tennis courts By Gaylen Blosser DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE – Four friends were back on Greenville Senior High School’s Greenville National Bank Tennis Complex courts for some friendly competition after time away due to the COVID-19 pandemic. “We were back out here after they opened the courts up,” said Greenville

High School boys tennis coach, Denis Kiser. Taking to the courts were locals Brian Reifsnider, Don Pohlman, Tim Swensen and Denis Kiser. “We have played off and on for the past 25 years,” said Pohlman, “predominantly on Tuesday night. It has been an enjoyable support to share with everybody.” The hot and muggy Tuesday night did not keep

the ‘mature men’ off the late afternoon Greenville tennis courts. “I love coming out with these guys,” Reifsnider noted. “I just wish the air conditioner out here worked a little better.” It was evident watching the four play, the workout on the court was helping keep the men in good physical conditon. “Great competition,” stated Swensen. “We’re

evenly matched, we switch around and it’s pretty even no matter what we do. That is the beauty of it – it’s always close and fun.” “They are good players,” Kiser said. “I am always the worst one out here so it s always fun to get better.” Contact Darke County Media Sports Editor Gaylen Blosser at gblosser@ aimmediamidwest.com or 937-5483330

Brown, Portman introduce Annie Glenn resolution WASHINGTON, DC — On Wednesday, U.S. Senators Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Rob Portman (R-OH) introduced a bipartisan resolution to honor the life, legacy and achievements of Annie Glenn, a passionate advocate and philanthropist, a loving mother, and wife of 73 years to former U.S. Senator John Glenn (D-OH). The introduction of this resolution was made possible with the support and involvement of Annie Glenn’s family and loved ones. Having overcome a severe stutter, Glenn was a leading advocate on behalf of children, the elderly, and people with disabilities. At the age of 53, Glenn overcame her stutter through an intensive speech

program at Hollins University, later becoming an avid public speaker and an award-winning advocate for those struggling from communication disabilities. In 2019, Brown moved into the former office of late Senator John Glenn. In honor of Annie and her contribution to the state, Brown named the main meeting space in his office the ‘Annie Glenn Conference Room.’ “Annie Glenn has made Ohio proud all her life — as an advocate, a philanthropist, a mother and partner, and as a friend,” said Brown. Annie will be remembered for her work to lift others up, including those who shared her struggles with

communicative disorders. Her passion for helping others, along with a kind spirit and sharp wit, endeared Annie to anyone who met her.” “Annie Glenn was a strong woman with a gracious nature, and a dear friend of Jane’s and mine,” said Portman. “Her service to our state and advocacy on behalf of people with disabilities, particularly those with speech disabilities, combined with John’s legacy as an American hero and Ohio’s longest-serving United States Senator have made them a couple that will live forever in Ohio history. I’m proud to join Senator Brown to introduce this resolution honoring the life of this remarkable woman.”

Bank, Greenville Federal, Greenville National Bank, Park National Bank (formerly known as Second National Bank), Versailles Savings & Loan, and the Darke County United Way Office. “In 2019, we collected a little over $7,300 worth of school supplies. Our goal for 2020 is to collect $10,000 in supplies to give our community’s children the tools to succeed and learn,” said Darke County United Way Executive Director, Christy Bugher. “School supplies and fees are a financial hardship for many families throughout Darke County. The COVID-19 pandemic has only created additional hardships. Further, many teachers provide classroom supplies that children may

share. That will not be an option if children go back in the fall. Each student will be required to have his/her own supplies. It is crucial that we collect as much as possible this year for our local students.” Stuff A Bus benefits children in the following school districts: Ansonia, Arcanum, Bradford, Franklin-Monroe, Greenville, Mississinawa Valley, Tri-Village, Versailles, and Anthony Wayne. The Darke County United Way fights for the health, education, and stability of every person in our community.

It was noted that the estimated cost of the project is just a little more than $3 million, with 85 percent funded by the district. High School Principal Jim Robson spoke and honored Anne Cox, former superintendent, who hired him 23 years ago. He also talked about the donor plaques that are on display in the hallways. “I will put Jim Atchley, our superintendent, up against any others in Ohio,” Robson said. “He was a calming force in this storm.” It was then that he reported that the hallway would be named for Atchley, with Barga presenting the superintendent with the plaque. “We have two great principals and a great collaborative leadership,” the Atchley said in his acceptance speech. With that done, a ribbon-cutting ceremony was held outside the front door prior to the twohour open house. The Ansonia Preschool features 7,296 square feet of classrooms, two restrooms per room

GREENVILLE — Three local women who share a love and compassion for animals opened Pets-N-Style Grooming Salon on May 12 at 636 Wagner Avenue in Greenville.

Owners Karen Leis, Traci Dohme and Isabelle Littlefield, with a combined total of 50 years experience, are now providing professional grooming services for “the first-time haircuts that need a little bit of extra time and patience, to the tenderhearted seniors that need that extra soft touch.” This new full-service pet grooming salon was set up by them to fulfill their love of animals. “All we can say is we love our job,” they said in an interview. All three of them groomed previously in Arcanum and decided to make Greenville their new home.

GREENVILLE — With the close of the 2019-2020 school year being under an unusual Stay at Home Order, it is still time to congratulate another group of outstanding graduates. The Class of 2020 formally became graduates on May 30, 2020. Two hundred and three graduates received their diploma representing the Class of 2020 during a virtual ceremony as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic condition. The class had many academic and extracurricular accomplishments while at Greenville High School and we commend each and every graduate. We wish all graduates much success and happiness in their future endeavors. Graduates are now welcomed into our Greenville High School Alumni. I again want to thank all the students, teachers, staff, parents, grandparents, and community members for making our end of year virtual learning a success while the entire nation was working through the COVID-19 situation. Thank you all for your hard work with remote learning. All of your hard work was greatly appreciated. Our district is now turning its attention to opening school again for the 2020-2021 school year at the end of August. We have a core group of administrators, principals, curriculum personnel, nurses, and teachers looking at different building and transportation scenarios as well as curriculum learning management systems to determine the best way to open school for 2020-2021. Our core group is also monitoring input and guidance being discussed by the governor, Ohio Health Department, Darke County Health Department, Ohio Department of Education, Buckeye Association of School Administrators, Ohio School Boards Association, and various other curriculum committees. We are gathering and reviewing best practices for whether school resumes in person, remotely online, or in some form of blended learning. As more definite guidance becomes available from the governor, Ohio Department of Education, and state/ local health departments our best option for educational planning for opening will be rolled out. Again, we are planning for all scenarios of education as needed. The most important thing to remember is we want to retain all our students in the safest environment as possible and provide quality instruction to every student. We are hopeful that as much as possible this will be an inperson education. The district has been discussing and preparing to order the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE) for next year to allow us to keep all students and staff safe. Furthermore, we have been looking at ordering appropriate cleaning supplies and equipment as

well as hand sanitizer to maintain a clean learning environment in both our buildings and on the buses. We also plan to work with the requirements and recommendations of the Ohio Department of Education and the state/local health departments for appropriate school symptom monitoring, use of facial masks by staff and students, social distancing, and hand washing. With the end of the 2019-2020 school year being from remote learning it became evident that it would be helpful to have a district-wide Learning Management System (LMS). An LMS is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting, delivery of educational courses, training programs, and is a concept that emerged from e-Learning. If you have taken any course online, it was most likely through an LMS, such as Canvas, Blackboard, or Schoology where you communicate in an online environment. Over the last several weeks, we have consulted with teachers and shared demonstrations of a variety of LMS providers, researched districts, and recommended the purchase and training to use Canvas. Canvas was most of our teacher’s first choice and comes with strong recommendations from Hilliard and Delaware City Schools, as well as the Ohio State University, Miami University, Bowling Green State University, and the University of Cincinnati. This will be a useful tool if we continue with eLearning at any time and also in the classroom. The Board approved this purchase from grant funds and also included up to 6 hours of training for each teacher in the district. As we transition and train staff, students, and parents to the Canvas Learning Management System this should make remote learning more consistent moving forward. We also plan to have students and staff practice using this LMS even in their in-person instruction so it becomes a seamless transition if remote learning becomes a necessity at any time. At the elementary K-4 level we continue to provide the summer Kids Read Now program. I encourage our students to utilize this summer academic reading program to stay sharp with their academic skills. I also encourage parents to utilize the comprehension questions located in each book to discuss the book and improve reading skills. At the high school next year, we continue to implement the College Credit Plus courses for the seventh year. We now offer CCP from several colleges and universities including Edison State, Sinclair, and Wright State. Many of our student continue to take advantage of the CCP program. In fact, last year again we had three of our high school graduates receive associate’s degrees at the same time as a high school diploma. Across the district, other curriculum plans included the purchase of textbooks and supplemental material in the disciplines of foreign language, business educa-

Improvements under way at Darke County Airport By Rob Kiser

DarkeCountyMedia.com

VERSAILLES — There is plenty of excitement going on at the Darke County Airport. The airport recently received a $3.1 million Improvement Grant from the Federal Aviation Administration to make improvements. “This is huge,” airport manager Scott Nass said. “There were only three counties in Ohio that got the grant and we were one of them. It is all about safety.” The big thing is it is grant money, which came from the Northeastern District of the FAA, located in Romulus, Michigan. “This is not costing the county a cent,” Darke County Commissioner Mike Rhoades said. “This is a big gift and it is very much appreciated what they did for us. They didn’t have to do it. We were competing against big airports — but we really weren’t competing. We didn’t know they were doing it.” The airport is in the process of moving two hangars to allow them to improve the taxi way and create more room for the jets that fly in to operate safely. “They saw the possibilities out here,” Nass said. “We are going GEB070520 PAGE 1 OF 1

Rhoades is excited. “Oh, it is awesome, we have got these two buildings to move because of the new taxi way that will be going in. starting in September,” Rhoades said. “Consequently, we have to get them moved and we have them rented already.” One business is Bogey Aviation from Piqua. “One individual has a business refurbishing the interior of airplanes (Bogey Aviation) and he can’t wait for us to get in here,” Rhoades explained. “We have an electrician ready to go. By end the end of July, he should be up in the air and his new business going good.” That is just the beginning. “There is a lot of stuff going on,” Rhoades said. “Once we get this done, that theory — ‘Build it, Gaylen Blosser | The Early Bird they will come’ — is what we are One of the hangars at the Darke County Airport is moved as part of $3.1 million dollar Federal Grant to make improvements at hoping for.

Wright State announces fall semester plans DAYTON — Wright State University announced plans to return to teaching on its Dayton and Lake Campuses for the fall 2020 semester on Aug. 24 with a dynamic and flexible mixture of in-person and remote courses. In an email sent to the campus community on June 30, Wright State University President Sue Edwards reiterated that the safety and wellness of students and employees continues to be the university’s number one priority as decisions are made. “We are taking extra precautions to keep our students, faculty, employees and visitors safe,” she said. The university will continue to monitor the pandemic in partnership with Greene and Mercer County Public Health departments and the State of Ohio, and will comply with guidelines and mandates as they evolve. A dedicated team of faculty, staff, and students has worked with state and local health authorities, as well as Ohio’s other higher education institutions to develop comprehensive policies and protocols for a fall return to campus. “Our faculty and staff have been flexible and innovative. And our students are amazing and resilient,” Edwards said. Academics Wright State will welcome students who are able and who choose to participate in an on-campus experience for the fall semester. Fall course offerings will utilize online, hybrid, and safe, socially distant, inperson on-campus classes. “Our aim is to ensure the best experience for our students, taking into account space, scheduling, pedagogical, and health concerns for all students and employees,” Edwards said. At this time, Wright State

ings at any time.

Wright State University has announced its reopening plans for the Fall 2020 semester.

conservatively estimates that one-third of classes will have in-person components, while the majority of in-person classes will also deliver all content remotely to provide flexibility to students who are unable or do not feel comfortable returning to campus. To maintain proper social distancing, many on-campus classes will have fewer students in attendance in each class section than they normally would. Large enrollment lecture-based courses will be delivered remotely, with the opportunity for students to engage in discussion via chats or discussion forums. Wright State will prioritize the following categories of courses to be held on campus as long as the university is confident that safety and state compliance measures can be observed: • Practica • Clinicals • Lab sections and labbased courses • Studio courses in the arts • Active learning courses • Discussion-based courses Details of which courses will be on campus and

Facility safety and security Wright State Facilities Management and Campus Operations has worked hard to achieve a safe and clean learning environment for students and employees in anticipation of the start of fall semester. The facilities team has thoroughly cleaned and disinfected surfaces and objects to reduce the risk of exposure. High-touch points, including door handles, elevator buttons and handrails, are also frequently disinfected. Facilities Management and Campus Operations will provide guidance to ensure a minimum of six feet distance between people on campus. Facilities will also provide transaction shields or barriers in campus areas where frequent person-to-person interaction occurs. Occu-

Healthy protocols for those on campus Wright State has implemented new protocols that all students, employees and visitors must follow while on the Dayton Campus and Lake Campus. These include social distancing, daily health assessments, hand washing, cleaning surfaces, and face coverings. The guidelines are in line with recommendations from the Ohio Department of Health, Greene and Mercer County Public Health, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Additional details will be shared closer to the start of fall semester. “When you come to campus, it will feel different,” Edwards said. As more people begin returning to campus, Edwards said that faculty, staff, students and visitors are expected to comply with all safety policies, protocols, and guidelines. “We are all in this together, and I know I can count on you,” she said. “I’m looking forward to fall semester and can’t wait to see students and colleagues on campus again!” For more information, please visit: www.wright. edu

The university will provide more information about plans for reopening academic campus services and offices before the start of fall semester.
