The statement from Noel Fallows, associate provost and for the Office of Global Engagement, was sent to all study abroad program directors and associate deans. It said the decision to cancel came after much deliberation and in consultation with the OGE Risk Management Advisory Committee, faculty directors and others.
âWe have decided that it is in the best interests of faculty and student health and safety to cancel all remaining UGA faculty-led Summer 2021 Study Abroad Programs,â Fallows said in the statement.
Fallows encouraged program directors to offer summer 2021 program students priority for summer 2022 programs without requiring them to reapply.
All faculty-led Maymester study abroad programs for 2021 have been canceled by the University of Georgia, according to a Feb. 15 email from the Office of Global Engagement.
