After announcing this week that they will not require students to get COVID-19 vaccines, the presidents of LSU and the University of Louisiana systems said Wednesday that they are reviewing how to accommodate faculty members who feel they might be at risk in returning to in-person classes this fall.
Dr. Jim Henderson, president of the UL system, said the nine universities in his system will assess requests by faculty members to teach online on a case-by-case basis assuming that the vaccines are as effective as expected and depending on public health conditions at the time.
Henderson said administrators will consider age, medical conditions and family health concerns, along with the latest public health guidance, in making the decisions.
