Some groups have adjusted to new safety regulations, others struggle to stay active
March 15, 2021
With COVID-19 forcing clubs and organizations to move from in-person to online formats one year ago, many still face several challenges with the new rules and regulations.
The Student Association (SA) is in charge of the rules and regulations of the clubs on-campus and has also been forced to remodel its office due to COVID-19. The SA has opened virtual office hours and is running all public board meetings through Zoom to reduce in-person risks. All restrictions placed on events are reviewed and updated in accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Binghamton University’s guidelines, according to Khaleel James, president of the SA and a senior double-majoring in economics and human development.
