In-person classes will resume today at several UC campus, including UCLA and UC Irvine, following three weeks of remote instruction prompted by a winter surge in COVID-19 cases.
All returning students, however, will be required to show proof of a booster dose of COVID-19 vaccine if they are eligible.
They noted that some select courses may continue with online instruction, but the majority of classes will return to in-person. At UC Irvine, university Provost Hal Stern wrote in a campus message that the decision to resume in-person courses was made in"consultation with the community, including discussions with Academic Senate leadership, student government leadership, campus health leadership, and university administrators."
