To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, Brandon University will continue with its existing restrictions and mandates that they have been using.
This means that classes of 25 or fewer will continue to be held in person, where possible, and where space and scheduling considerations permit, while most larger classes will continue to be held online.
All students and staff will have to be vaccinated in order to be on campus as well as masks are required to be worn while indoors. The university is also continuing enhanced ventilation and sanitization.
So for the most part, the Winter Term that begins in January will be the same as the term taking place right now; however, there will be a few small changes.
Some classes of more than 25 students may be held in person, if the professor requests it, if pedagogical reasons support it, and if physical distancing can be reasonably maintained. Professors can talk to their Deans to discuss possibilities.
As well, some more public events may be held on campus, for example, meetings for community groups that the university has traditionally hosted. These events will be permitted so long as all attendees can follow BU’s COVID precautions and all public health orders.
