The national university of Belize was forced to close its door on March 20, 2020, due to the deadly pandemic, COVID-19. Its president, Professor Clement Sankat was faced with the challenging decision of how to meet the goals of the university via an electronic means. Previously, he had worked several years as an administrator at the University of the West Indies and, at the time of the pandemic, three years at the University of Belize. Throughout his years of experience, he was required to make challenging decisions—but none was of this sort.
