News & Events

On July 30, Governor Evers announced a new emergency order mandating facemasks to be worn indoors. This mandate changes little at BTC since we continue to operate in Stage 5 of our reopening plan that requires everyone to be masked.  Since facemasks are required at all Blackhawk locations, the only change will be for employees in open workspaces or cubicles. If not alone in such an area, employees will be required to wear a mask at all times. The only exceptions to the mask order are for those alone in their office or a non-shared workspace or when eating in the Commons. If individuals do not have a mask, they are available at campus entrances. In addition to facemasks, we continue to require physical distancing and have placed many reminders throughout our campuses.

After careful consideration, the College will continue operations in Stage 5 (see below) until January 2021. COVID-19 remains a threat to our community. Therefore, we will continue to monitor local, state, federal, and CDC guidelines and will be ready to move to earlier stages, if necessary. We must make all necessary modifications to the teaching and learning environment to ensure we comply with Stage 5 requirements.
