Michigan universities issue stay-at-home orders amid rising cases

Due to rising COVID-19 cases, the University of Michigan and Michigan State University campus’ have issued a stay-at-home order for its students. These orders ask students to stay home for two weeks with the exception of food, exercise, work and in-person classes.  Grand Valley State University students experienced a similar order at the beginning of the fall 2020 semester. These surges in the number of cases in September were partially due to student off-campus activities and a later surge from general community transmission in November and December.  With COVID-19 remaining present, many students may wonder if the GVSU campus is next for a stay-at-home order.
