Abstract
As a primarily residential, high research institution, Louisiana Tech University is proud of the
creativity and innovation that have been hallmarks of its residential student experience and rich
academic environment since its opening in 1894. In March of 2020, all bricks and mortar of the
125-year-old campus lost their vibrancy when the SARS-CV-2 (coronavirus), COVID-19, and
the subsequent safety measures caused the campus to alter operations as they knew
them. The innovations and improvements implemented to elevate the campus to a new
dimension of learning and working- virtual- were exercises in change management with the goal
of creating viable solutions for our existing students, faculty, and staff, while preparing to serve
larger numbers in the future. What follows is a description of how Louisiana Tech found success
and opportunity in some of the most challenging times ever.
