CALGARY --
As pandemic restrictions ease, administrators at Alberta universities and colleges are trying to figure out the safest way for staff and students to return to on-campus learning.
University of Calgary professor and infections disease expert Craig Jenne knows the virus spreads indoors when people are close together for extended periods of time.
"And there's probably no better way to describe a university or college lecture hall than a whole bunch of people indoors for a long period of time," said Jenne.
That poses a challenge for administrators. Seneca College in Toronto is the first post-secondary school in Canada to impose a new COVID rule where all staff and students must be fully vaccinated to come back to campus when school starts in the fall.
