Slippery Rock University will only hold virtual classes through January to accommodate an expansive regimen for testing students for COVID-19.
In a letter sent to students, faculty and staff Friday, university president Bill Behre outlined the college s approach for a safe return to in-person instruction in the spring 2021 semester, describing the plan as a “deliberate and measured approach” to ensure health and wellness on campus.
From Jan. 12 through Jan. 31, classes will be wholly online. Behre said this allows the college to start its testing regimen. That regimen includes testing on-campus residents twice in their first week on campus, followed by once every other week; off-campus residents will be tested before returning to in-person classes Feb. 1 and will likewise see follow-up tests every two weeks.

MORGANTOWN, W. Va. â Emporium native and 2019 Slippery Rock University graduate Ruth Phillips has had a lifelong love for helping others along with athletic competition. Growing up, she rarely missed Cameron County High School athletic events, and even played in many of her own through the years.
Going into her senior year of high school, a conversation with her brother, Ryan helped her determine some goals for her life past high school.
âMy brother is 19 years older than me,â Phillips explained. âI would always go spend a week in the summer with him. In the summer going into my senior year, he and his wife Davina asked me what I wanted to do for a career, and they encouraged me to think about a career in sports.â
