Faculty are given the choice on whether to teach in-person, remote, or a hybrid.
It's the staff that aren't given a choice, and also aren't given an avenue to deal with concerns or questions.
So, the answer is, if there is spread on campus, the faculty will be told to go online, and staff will be told "you're safe, because there are no students now", much as we are being told today, in the current summer semester.
To quote the President from his most recent update for staff about enrollment, "Please join me in being part of the solutions to the many challenges we face now and in the very near future and refrain from the negativity and participation of those wanting to be part of the problem. That individual choice is yours. Please make it wisely."
What does 14% off on students mean? 14% fewer students registering for classes?
Then administration caught wind we were 14% off on students.
Two days later - mandatory, everyone back in the office, no remote work to be allowed, for any reason.
It's depressing, and I have no other reason to type this out, other than to complain, I guess. 99% of my, and the folks in my office's jobs can be done, effectively, remotely. But that's not an option. Just ridiculous.
