Dartmouth Going Online For At Least Five Weeks

From a Dartmouth news release (LINK):
(W)e have made the decision to move Dartmouth to a remote format for the first five weeks of spring term (until May 1). Undergraduate students are asked not to return to live on campus for the time being, with a small set of exceptions who will remain on campus due to medical, visa status, and other reasons. Whether students remain on campus or return home, all undergraduate classes will be conducted virtually and activities will be limited. Students who are currently out of town must not return to campus. We will work with those who are receiving financial aid to ensure that they are supported. During these five weeks the Dartmouth campus will remain open, faculty and staff, including union employees, will be paid as usual, and graduate students will continue to receive their stipends.
