California State University classes to continue mostly online in fall

Most classes across the California State University system will continue to be held online through the fall because of the spread of the coronavirus, Chancellor Tim White said Tuesday.

The CSU system is the largest in the country.

The second-largest ...

The state’s other four-year public university system, the 10-campus University of California, was not prepared on Tuesday to immediately follow CSU’s example, a spokeswoman said.

“We are exploring a mixed approach with some material delivered in classroom and labs settings while other classes will continue to be online,” Claire Doan said in an email to EdSource. “Our campuses will reopen for on-site instruction when it is safe to do so – in coordination with federal, state and local health departments and authorities.”

Classes across the UC system have been online since March. The UC Board of Regents is meeting next week and is expected to discuss plans for the fall. So far, UC San Diego has announced a massive coronavirus testing plan for students, faculty and staff. UC San Diego this week is starting testing for the 5,000 students currently on campus, with plans to expand that to all 65,000 students, faculty and staff in the fall. That campus is aided by having its own medical center.

If the UC system closes campuses for the fall (goes online), that includes UCLA.  No game against them.

In fact, the NCAA said if schools are closed this fall, no fall sports. 

Football is way too big.  They most likely will play it in the spring.  If so, what happens with CBB?  Does it compete with football?  The NCAA tournament is way too big a money maker to allow it to get watered down by football bowl games at the same time (and visa versa). Does/should it get shoved to summer (August madness?)

How will all this get untangled?
