Cambridge: all lectures to be online-only next academic year
In the corona crisis, Cambridge University is looking more than a year ahead. Until the summer of 2021, all lectures will be online, the top university has announced. It is the first top university to make a decision about this. Most other institutions are not yet officially looking beyond the first semester of the new academic year. Keeping a distance will remain the norm for the time being, the British university expects, so it wants to give its students clarity about this. However, small working groups might be able to meet. The British quality controller in higher education, the Office for Students, this week said that students need clarity about education in the coming year. Universities should not make false promises about student life on campus, it warned. (HOP, Bas Belleman)
