Dr. Adam M Volungis

The Summer semester is here!  Another semester of intense remote learning!  I hope you are all finding a way to keep your “sanity” during COVID-19.  There appears to be some hope on the horizon.  If you can, please try get outside (literally) and socialize with others.  This is very important for your mental health and overall well-being.  Please browse the contents of your corresponding course. All of your course materials will be available on this website as the semester progresses {please note a password may be necessary for certain content}.  I will keep the course content and materials updated throughout the semester.  Enjoy your semester!
