POINT LOOKOUT, MO. — Administrators from College of the Ozarks have announced changes to the academic calendar and other events due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

College administrators have made decisions regarding the following events:

  • Graduation ceremonies will take place in conjunction with Homecoming on Sunday, Nov. 8., 2020
  • Camp Lookout, the College’s free summer camp for local children, is canceled for this year.
  • All athletic camps for the summer have been canceled.

We have weathered many storms since our founding in 1906, and we are confident that the future is bright for our students, and our graduates, who have the opportunity to graduate from this institution debt free.
