Tulane University delaying start of spring semester by one week
NEW ORLEANS - Tulane University, citing a surge of COVID-19 cases, has pushed back the start of the spring semester by a week.
The university rescheduled the first day of classes to Jan. 25 for undergraduate students. Graduate programs may have different schedules.
Students moving onto campus will also have their move-in date pushed back one week.
Tulane requires all students to get a booster shot when they are eligible, and the school said the extra week gives returning students more time to get the extra dose.
