COVID-19: SF State students grapple with conflicting instructions on dorm living

from Civic · host Mel Baker, Laura Wenus, Leslie Santibañez Molina

Students at San Francisco State University are grappling with conflicting directions about student housing during the coronavirus outbreak. Students who live in dormitories received an email last night instructing them to leave campus housing due to the coronavirus outbreak. This morning, the school followed up with an email saying students would not be forced to leave their dorms, but left the decision up to students and asked anyone who chooses to stay in campus housing to notify the school by March 12.

Upholding Matters David Paul What holds you up and what do you uphold? With the slipping of decency and decorum in our public and private spheres of life, and with once rock-solid faith in civic and social norms now in taters, many people are left feeling greatly concerned and uneasy about the future.
