Many universities are heading into their new academic years. But, if one were to visit most campuses across the United States, they would likely be met not by the usual beehive of activities, but shuttered doors, and relatively subdued student populations. Some schools, like the University of Wisconsin-Madison and smaller liberal arts colleges, are offering a hybrid of online education and socially-distanced classroom instruction. Many others, like the University if California-Berkeley, are now fully online. And just last week, Michigan State and Notre Dame announced suspension of in-classroom learning for online instruction.
