COLUMBIA â Sunday was the first day undergraduates at the University of Missouri-Columbia are able to get tested for COVID-19 at the Hearnes Center.Â
MU announced in late December that it would require students who live in on-campus housing to be tested before moving back.
The university said students could either receive a negative test five days before returning to campus or get a test when they got back on campus.
One student told KOMU 8 News she thinks this move is a step in the right direction.
âI think this a great start,â MU senior Briana Hamilton said. âI think we can be taking more preventative measures, but this is a great start.â
