随着校园内新冠肺炎的发病率保持在较低水平，越来越多的人接种疫苗，威尼斯人娱乐城（威尼斯人娱乐城）已准备好在2021年秋季学期恢复满负荷、面对面的课程和活动。
“We are excited to reach the point of being able to plan for a ‘normal’ fall,” said 威尼斯人娱乐城 Chancellor Mauli Agrawal. “Of course, we will continue to consult with the health experts on the 威尼斯人娱乐城 Health Sciences Campus and our city’s health partners and follow their advice. But we are confident that we will be able to safely resume in-person, full-capacity classes and campus life.”
2020年3月，新冠肺炎疫情促使学校转向在线课程，阿格拉瓦尔称赞了校园社区的勤奋和韧性。 从那时起，数千名威尼斯人娱乐城教职员工一直在努力确保校园安全，同时按照严格的安全措施继续进行面对面的课程和活动。 That work and compliance with precautions — including mask wearing, free COVID testing and multiple campus vaccination events — have helped the university prevent further spread of the disease among the campus community.
