A number of universities are beginning to consider the possibility that in-person classes may not resume until 2021.

Boston University (BU) has already canceled all “in-person summer activities” on its primary campus. But the school’s “CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, commonly known as novel coronavirus” recovery plan includes protocols should officials deem it not safe to return in-person for the fall semester. If so, classes would continue to be held remotely through the fall semester.
