Closed For the Flu
Inside Higher Ed reports that several campuses have decided to close briefly because of H1N1 (AKA Swine Flu). It’s a campus-by-campus judgement call at this point, and many campuses are operating as usual, despite several suspected H1N1 sicknesses or confirmed cases. The situation is hardly alarming, given a relative smattering of cases among college students, but campus professionals in all areas are staying cautious as spring semester ends and summer conferences and events begin, which will bring people in a wide variety of age ranges and immunities to campuses.
