Georgia’s Public Universities Plan For Full-Capacity Operations This Fall

ATLANTA (AP) — Classrooms, dorms, cafeterias and stadiums are likely to be full again this fall at Georgia’s public universities.

The University System of Georgia on Wednesday announced that it has asked all campuses to plan for normal operations during the fall 2021 semester.

“This decision comes as wider availability of vaccines over the next few months is anticipated to control the spread of COVID-19,” the system said in a statement this week. “USG will continue to monitor the spread of COVID-19 across the state and consult with DPH in the coming months as to the appropriate practices to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19.”
