Most Memorial University faculty and students will be back to offlines classes in less than two weeks.

In a notice posted on the MUN Gazette Wednesday afternoon, vice-president Florentine Strzelczyk stated the conclusion to return to offline learning was created in conjunction with Public Health.

“Should the COVID-19 position in Newfoundland and Labrador change, Memorial may be needed to reverse this approach,” Strzelczyk said. Source – cbc.ca

Classes on the St. John’s campus with more irregular than 100 students will appear offline “where feasible,” while courses with higher enrollment will stay online. Labs, conducting arts programs, and practicums will take place offline.
