NIU plans for double-occupancy dorms, in-person events for fall
DeKALB – NIU is taking more steps to return to a sense of normalcy in the fall semester as students living on-campus will be allowed to have a roommate, and many in-person events will return.
Beth Ingram, executive vice president and provost, announced at Thursday’s Board of Trustees meeting that plans for the fall semester are underway. The university doesn’t plan on requiring COVID-19 vaccines as of right now because they’re under an emergency use authorization.
