In a campus-wide email on Wednesday, UNI Provost Jim Wohlpart reiterated the campus’ proposed calendar for the spring 2021 semester, including a Jan. 25 start date, no spring break and a May 7 conclusion.

He also shared that the plan for spring 2021 classes is to maintain mostly face-to-face instruction, as in the fall.

74% of classes are planned for in-person instruction, 7% hybrid, 17% online semester-based and 2% online independent study.

“We will continue to watch the trends over the holiday break in order to determine if we need to make any tweaks to the spring schedule,” he wrote.

Wohlpart added that the university hopes to have regular communications going out every Wednesday at noon starting on Jan. 6. Students, families, staff and faculty should watch their email and the UNI website for updates.

“In the meantime, please take some time off, stay safe, and wear your masks!” he concluded.
