WILMINGTON After completing the first semester of full-on pandemic protocols, University of North Carolina at Wilmington leaders now look toward the spring. Using the past few months of experience as a guidebook, the administration recently announced a number of measures designed to keep the campus presence alive, even as more classes will likely shift online because of Covid-19.
Re-entry testing is the highest-profile addition to UNCW’s spring semester procedures. Universities across the state have been advised by multiple authorities to institute the practice. It requires students moving into residence halls to produce negative Covid-19 test results three days prior to move-in, according to Katrin Wesner-Harts, a UNCW interim associate vice chancellor who is at the forefront of the university’s pandemic response.
