College During COVID: Geneva President Dr. Calvin Troup Discusses Changes On AM Beaver County

With the whirlwind coverage of the election in full swing, it might be easy to forget that the coronavirus pandemic is still going on, and still having major implications on millions of lives throughout the world–and in the case of Geneva College, several thousand students and their academic journeys.

Dr. Calvin Troup, who has been President of Geneva College since 2016, joined Matt Drzik on A.M. Beaver County to discuss how the Beaver Falls college managed finishing up the 2020 Spring Semester, and how the faculty, staff, and students are maneuvering through the current 2020 Fall Semester amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and concurrent restrictions.

Dr. Troup acknowledged that the toll of the pandemic on a psychological basis has pushed for Geneva to increase health and counseling services since March, although he also says that the faith aspect of Geneva’s culture has not been shattered. Furthermore, Troup showcased that the current semester, even with modifications, has run smoothly and continues to provide the students with joy and purpose.
