The Chronicle and Inside Higher Ed report on colleges scrambling amidst the sudden emergence of the Omicron variant. Stanford, Harvard, DePaul, and other schools have already made announcements to move to remote classes for the first few weeks of the spring semester. Other schools such as Tufts, Georgetown, NYU, and Princeton have already moved forward to shift their final exams online and cancel in-person events. Public health experts are urging institutions to mitigate the spread of COVID during December graduation ceremonies, which could become super-spreader events. Institutions are also starting to require booster shots and extend mask mandates. The Chronicle’s Live Coronavirus Updates publish updates from institutions and follow news on Coronavirus campus policies.
