"Harvard is moving classes online for the first three weeks of the new year, with a return to campus scheduled for late January, “conditions permitting.” The University of Chicago is delaying the beginning of its new term and holding the first two weeks online. Some others are inviting students back
to campus but starting classes online, including Michigan State University.
.

.
So far, more than 70 colleges across 26 states are starting the term online, and others say they are considering it. Many making the move now use
quarter systems that start earlier than those with semesters.

Many of those shifting online are in recent virus hot spots, including
George Washington, Yale and Columbia on the East Coast, along with Wayne
State University in Detroit and Northwestern University near Chicago. The
list also includes most of the University of California campuses and Rice
University in Houston."
