Following the heated debate in last week's meeting, GUSA took further action to address student concerns about the upcoming virtual learning period in a shorter and productive meeting on Jan. 9.
Students were informed of these changes, and received confirmation that spring classes would begin in a virtual format, through a series of emails, starting on Jan. 6, sent by Georgetown’s Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Ranit Mishori. As students move in between Jan. 11 and Jan. 31, when in-person classes are scheduled to begin, they expect to face a campus filled with new and unfamiliar protocols for preventing the spread of and treating COVID-19.
After nearly two hours of debate, the GUSA Senate tabled two resolutions in opposition to the university’s plan for all-virtual learning, restrictions on campus dining, and closure of fitness centers at its emergency meeting on Jan. 2.
