GCC Copper Country Plans Move to Distance Learning

The Gogebic Community College Copper Country Center in Houghton will move to distance delivery mode following the Thanksgiving holiday.

College officials said the decision was made out of concern for the safety of students, faculty and staff.

Classes will resume in person when the spring semester begins January 18, 2021.

“GCC continues to limit access to facilities along with virtualizing classrooms and work environments, where possible to mitigate the spread of Covid-19. Some courses will meet in person so it’s extremely important that students continue to check their GCC email on a regular basis for communication from their instructors,” said Dr. George McNulty, GCC President. “We will continue to work closely with the health department to do what we can to mitigate spread.”

Any individuals needing assistance or equipment are encouraged to contact faculty or staff remotely, but the Houghton college offices will remain open Monday through Friday from 8 am until 4:30 p. The computer lab will be available for student use.
