The university was among many that saw infections soar in the days before winter break. The campus averaged more than 80 cases a day during finals week, compared with just a few a day for much of the fall. And while most recent cases were mild, nearly all were among students who had received at least two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.
It’s the first time since last spring that the school has moved fully remote, but Chancellor Kim Wilcox said it is the best way to prevent the virus from spreading after students return from holiday travel.

Officials said the school is shifting its focus from preventing all cases to warding off serious illness or hospitalization.
Kids will mostly be fine with Covid, but the faculty, probably not. Even when vaccinated, Omicron is extremely contagious. Vaccine helps with the fight, but older and at-risk groups will still struggle. Good call.
