Oxbow6 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Armacost's priority list lincludes everything but education. Face to face...get students and educators back in to the classroom.....meh. Have no doubt a vaccination passport will be needed at some point for Zoom classes at UND. Can someone raise Clifford from the grave??

Certainly miles ahead of the last two, and probably even last three. Don't know much about Baker, but it's possible that Armacost is the best since Clifford. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw this in the news a while back. https://www.willistonherald.com/news/regional/north-dakota-universities-don-t-plan-on-requiring-covid-19-vaccine/article_ff4a2c6c-a116-11eb-863a-93dbd647d19b.html Quote Jerry Rostad, vice chancellor for the North Dakota University System, said they are doing everything they can to encourage students and staff to get vaccinated. “When you look at what the Centers for Disease Control and our public health officials are saying, vaccinations are important in developing herd immunity in the fight against COVID-19,” he said. Rostad said the campuses are going to encourage everyone to get vaccinated, but that is the furthest the NDUS will be going. “I want to be clear we are stopping short; we will not be doing any kind of vaccination mandate or requirements,” he said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If something was decided and was going to be directed/mandated to the student body at least have one ball to send out the email more than a day before classes start.

TheFlop Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 The whole point of NDSU and UND are the physical experience they provide. Poor leadership that encourages students to come to campus only to be stuck in a dorm with 100% online classes (last year) or that enacts a mask mandate after students had already arrived will impact enrollment. You take away too much of that experience, students will just stay home and go online to a better and/or cheaper school than NDSU/UND. Maybe that is already happening. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but I'll wait and see how UND's numbers look. NDSU's numbers the drop was modest, some encouraging numbers for them (1st year students).

On the other hand, you would have had (valid) criticism if they would have made the call 2 or 3 weeks ago without waiting to see if numbers started trending down. Not a surprise, but they haven't. Anyone who didn't see this coming based on national and local trends are kidding themselves. Numbers are almost entirely in line with the exact same time last year (with about half the testing) on the way to a fall spike. Let's hope (for many reasons) that the measures taken over the last year means things start heading the other way quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND was never going to allow students to attend in person classes without masks this fall regardless of "trends" and that was cemented on August 4th. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
