The number of people reporting COVID-19 infections at SIUC is comparatively small. Here are the numbers the university posts each week There are
5 on campus students
12 off campus students
2 faculty/staff
At this stage, from what I have read, shifting classes to all online and sending students home would be a really bad idea as we would be sending a lot of potentially infected people out of the area instead of keeping them here where they can be monitored.
In case you are interested in comparing, here are SEMO's daily stats
67 students
4 employees
20 in isolation on campus.
I totally agree. The condescending attitude displayed by the Faculty Association towards our students, virtually all of whom, are taking this in a very responsible and serious manner, grates on me.
