DOVER, Del. (AP) - A university in Delaware has announced it will hold a hybrid of in-person and online classes for the fall semester due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Delaware State University unveiled its reopening plan for the fall semester Tuesday. The hybrid formula will limit those on the school’s campus to 3,000 people, The Delaware News Journal reported.
Face coverings will be required, and students and staff will have to complete a daily questionnaire before coming to the school or leaving their residence halls when classes resume on August 25, the university said.
Coronavirus testing kits will also be mailed to students and staff prior to the beginning of the semester, and on-campus testing will be conducted on a weekly and bi-weekly basis, according to the plan.
Courses will transfer online after the school’s Thanksgiving break, similar to the University of Delaware. Wilmington University, another school in the state, has decided to only hold online classes during the fall.
