Translating a Booth Course to the Virtual WorldCampus Planning
Individuals from all parts of the university contributed to extensive planning for a safe return to campus last autumn, and all of us modified our behavior to help limit the spread of COVID-19. This enormous effort worked largely as intended, and we thank everyone for their dedication that enabled us to meet one of the greatest public health challenges in the university’s history.
As we resume on-campus activities fully for the Autumn Quarter 2021, we cannot let down our guard with respect to behavior that comports with dealing with the public health crisis. On the contrary, maintaining the precautions outlined in the UChicago Health Pact and the annual attestation is essential to making progress in the months ahead.
