91¸£Àûµ¼º½ to move to online instruction for the remainder of the semester
Article By: Staff
The University System of Georgia (USG) has determined that all 26 institutions, including 91¸£Àûµ¼º½, will move to online instruction for all courses for the remainder of the semester with extremely limited exceptions. This action comes following last week’s decision to suspend instruction for two weeks to ensure business and instructional continuity, and to allow further state assessment of COVID-19. In the end, we want to ensure that our faculty, staff and students are safe; that we do our part to help stem the spread of the coronavirus in Georgia; and that we fulfill our mission to graduate our students even in the face of these challenging times.
Based on , students will not be allowed to return to campus until they receive permission from the university, which will be forthcoming soon. Additionally, residence halls will be closed, with minimal exceptions for students unable to return home or who cannot find housing elsewhere. We will make every effort to accommodate those students who are unable to depart campus.
We will send specific instructions to students regarding when they can return to campus to retrieve their belongings from residence halls. Students will be expected to follow those instructions. We will provide additional information on refunds for housing, dining, and other services, as we receive additional guidance from the USG. Students should wait for university officials to contact them.
The university will remain open, with minimal staff physically on-site, to ensure continuity of certain services.
We know that students, faculty and staff will have many questions based on this announcement. We will be providing more detailed information to you frequently in the days ahead.
