FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) The normally bustling Fresno State campus remained oddly quiet with posted reminders we re in the middle of a pandemic.
The spring semester will begin January 21st but the school will hold off until February 8th to bring back 11% of students and staff. 2860 students, mostly enrolled in health science and lab courses, will be allowed to resume in-person learning.
Interim Fresno State President Saul Jimenez-Sandoval explained, Specifically nursing, they need that 50% of practice in person in order to get their degree. Some labs, for example in chemistry, have to be taught face to face therefore we have to have them face to face on campus as well.
