Re: VPA's decision

 Thanks, Craig, for clarifying the context.


Now, we can see that by channelling our Radical Campus spirit, SFU has created a major opportunity for public health researchers to identify the impacts and outcomes of in person learning versus remote learning during a pandemic surge. 


UBC will remain the control case, while SFU faculty and students will become the treatment group in this population level experiment in learning how to live with Covid.

In light of the recent communiqué from SFUFA--and breaking news from UBC--I just want to say that I for one applaud SFU's decision to return to in-person teaching, as planned, on January 24th. Cheers!  JD Fleming, English
