MESSAGE FROM THE NEW COORDINATOR/DIRECTOR
Dear WVU Community Music Program patrons,
My name is Dr. Eftihia Arkoudis and I am happy to greet you as the new director/coordinator of the Community Music Program following Mrs. Karen Taddie's retirement. Looking ahead to the coming academic year, I would like to thank you for the understanding you have shown during this interim period. It has been a joy to see you continue your music education with us and invest in the artistic growth of our community's youth.
I am looking forward to meeting you all virtually or in person and welcoming
you back.
Warm regards,
Dr. Eftihia Arkoudis
RESPONSE TO COVID-19
The program is resuming in person activities and is continuing virtual instruction after request and mutual agreement with the assigned instructor. We are doing our best to prioritize the health and safety of our faculty, staff, and students. We ask that you remain in contact with us with any questions or concerns regarding the delivery of in-person private instruction. Our website will be updated frequently to reflect any guideline changes that may occur in the near future.This announcement is an extension of requirements put in place in September which were set to be reevaluated in early October: West Virginia University has revised its masking guidelines and after October 21 mask requirements for individuals in all indoor spaces will be lifted, regardless of vaccination status. However, masks will be required for all those in classrooms, teaching and research labs on all campuses.
