HANOVER — Dartmouth College has shuttered indoor gathering spaces and shifted in-person classes to a remote format at least until Tuesday in light of rising numbers of COVID-19 cases, according to the college provost.
As of Thursday, the college had 37 active cases of COVID-19 in students, with 112 students and employees in either quarantine or isolation, according to the school’s dashboard. Those numbers could rise, Dartmouth Provost Joseph Helble said in an email Thursday to the Dartmouth community. This is up from a previous high of 25 active cases in mid-January, college spokeswoman Diana Lawrence said.
