PSU to decide on fall resumption on June 15
- Thread starter Nitwit
- Start date
The jury is currently out on that Decision. Let’s see what the plan is. Let’s see what the status of all things that need to be considered are come July/ August.
There has been no word or speculation. Only fact we know is PSU admin will meet on June 15th to decide about school year. Hopefully a decision on the return of athletes will occur prior to the meeting on the 15th. 4 B1G teams have already announced return dates for athletes and none of those dates are after June 8th. PSU needs their players back within that time frame if they are going to compete.

I'm looking for a mass email to everyone on Sunday evening. At least, that's been the pattern. They'll probably post a separate statement by Barron on Monday.
This is spot on--Sunday evening email, light on details, to faculty/staff/students.
I got $10 says Barron's statement will have onion dip on it!
My bet is everyone parks at Grange and the mall and busses in one by one. Only one gate will be open and it'll be on the opposite side of bus drop off and there will only be one ticket checker that will also wand, take temperatures, and give rectal exams.
Dear Penn State Community:
Following a three-month comprehensive planning process, I'm pleased to share with you the University's announcement regarding our Back to State plan to resume campus-based residential instruction, work and other activities this fall in a limited fashion.
The health and well-being of the Penn State community is the University's first priority as we look forward to welcoming the community back to our campuses. Penn State will begin to have students and employees return to campuses in phases, beginning this summer, and will have a number of prevention and public health procedures and strategies in place to protect the health and safety of students, faculty, staff and local communities.
I know you will have many questions. We will be hosting two town halls in the coming weeks about the fall semester with as much information as is currently available. We also will continue to share updates throughout the summer as information is available. I encourage you to read more about our fall plans and continue to track our Back to State updates on virusinfo.psu.edu.
Also, we know there are other issues on your mind as it has been a challenging time for our nation beyond COVID-19. I want you to know Penn State is deeply committed to focusing on addressing hate and racism. If you haven't, please read my message, as these initiatives, along with diversity and inclusion, will be a priority for our entire community as we look ahead to the fall semester. A website will soon be launched to track progress on these initiatives.
I look forward to seeing you back on campus in August.
Eric J. Barron
President, Penn State
