Just one day after Jim Harbaugh said he would âwant the responsibility of keeping our players safe and educating themâ by having a football season, the Big 10 is planning to play a conference-only schedule, if the season happens at all.
As first reported by ESPN, the ruling will extend to all fall sports, affecting menâs and womenâs soccer, menâs and womenâs cross country, field hockey and volleyball.
Dear subscribers,
Good evening,
Welcome to the July 12 edition of the Daily Digest. With the fall semester looming in the face of COVID-19, it is now more important than ever to stay updated with on campus news and beyond. Thatâs why weâre here to bring you this weekâs top stories, straight to your inbox.
This week, Big 10 football will only participate in conference play, the University files a brief supporting Harvard and MIT in lawsuit against ICE and Michigan businesses must refuse service to those without a mask per Gov. Whitmerâs executive order.
The University of Michigan will sue the Trump administration over its July 6 guidance forcing international students to leave the United States if their college only offers online classes in the fall.
The University will join Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology lawsuit as a friend of the court, University spokesperson Rick Fitzgerald confirmed in an email to The Daily Thursday.
Expanding Michiganâs requirements for wearing masks in public spaces, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has issued an executive order mandating that all businesses in Michigan are now required to refuse service or entry to any person who is not wearing a face covering.
The order, which takes effect Monday morning, also requires the wearing of masks in crowded outdoor spaces. The move comes a week after Whitmer shut down indoor bar service for most of Michigan in an effort to ramp up enforcement.
With under two months left before the start of classes for the 2020-21 academic year, the University of Michigan Faculty Senate hosted a town hall meeting featuring University President Mark Schlissel and Interim Provost Susan Collins on Wednesday afternoon.
Over 600 members of the University community listened in on the Zoom call while submitting questions regarding off-campus student behavior, COVID-19 testing, quarantine plans and the endowment. The discussion was moderated by Faculty Senate Chair Colleen Conway, professor of music.
On April 27, the student instructors hired to teach the Central Student Government-sponsored LSAT test program sent a letter to CSG alleging a contract breach and administrative failures. On May 20, CSG held a special meeting where they discussed this letter but failed to pass a motion resolving the LSAT instructorsâ concerns.
The letter stated CSG had failed to make on-time payments to the instructors and alleges instructors who taught classes in February did not receive compensation for their work until April 9 or later.
