On March 20, the Miramar College campus closed abruptly due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But while thousands of students and hundreds of employees scurried off campus to begin remote operations and learning, the Miramar College bookstore remained relatively unfazed. It had to! Short term classes were either ending or beginning and students needed books and supplies so as to not interrupt their education. That’s when Bookstore Supervisor Lilly Cava and her staff showed off their “Best in Class” spirit.
If you have ever been to campus during the first week of instruction, you have no doubt seen friendly Miramar College employees under teal tents ready to provide you the information you need to start a new semester.

The adjustment of moving from the comfort of in-person instruction to remote learning has had its effects on everyone. But mostly students.

Fast forward to present day and students now must seek those services online.
