Edinboro University plans to open its campus in fall, assuming the COVID-19 situation improves and health officials do not advise against it, according to a university news release.
University officials said some mitigation efforts are likely to linger, based on Erie County Department of Health and state Department of Health guidelines. The extent of those mitigation efforts won’t be known until mid- to late summer.
“We look forward to seeing students back on campus in the fall,” said Dale-Elizabeth Pehrsson, Edinboro’s interim president.
There are about 420 students living on campus this semester – an increase over the fall, but still only about one-third of total housing capacity.
Pehrsson said university officials will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation and adapt accordingly if there are changes.
