UPDATE: Lethbridge College announces programming changes in January due to COVID concerns
“Today, the University of Lethbridge, alongside the University of Calgary and University of Alberta, have decided the best approach to protecting the health and safety of our students, faculty, and staff, is to start our respective January semesters primarily online and with continued safety measures on campus as needed. Therefore, all classes on both University of Lethbridge campuses will be online until January 21, 2022,” reads a release from the U of L.
The January 5 start date will not change, although professors will be given some flexibility to start later that week if they need more time making the transition happen. Professors will contact their students directly if their courses will be impacted.
