Boston University may cancel in-person classes until 2021
The University will "offer remote learning courses this summer"
Boston University is preparing for the possibility that in-person classes may not resume until 2021.
The university has already cancelled all "in-person summer activities on the Charles River Campus" — and the school's coronavirus recovery plan includes protocols for if it's not safe for students to return to campus in the fall, reports the CNN.
"The Recovery Plan recognizes that if, in the unlikely event that public health officials deem it unsafe to open in the fall of 2020, then the University's contingency plan envisions the need to consider a later in-person return, perhaps in January 2021."
The University will "offer remote learning courses this summer" and it plans to "continue providing the minimal housing and dining services that are currently available."
