COVID-19: University Students
Posted on August 29, 2020
We are just days away from the beginning of the semester for college and university students. How will things be different during this pandemic?
This summer has been a bit of a learning curve for college and university teachers who have to deliver a curriculum yet do it in a safe way. Colleges and universities are shifting to more of an online model with a few options for smaller in person learning. In the US, some universities returned to class only to shut down due to outbreaks of COVID. How will teachers and students adapt?
As with this pandemic, we are learning a new way to do things. Of course, those at the heart of the issue are the students. Many saw their last semester go up in flames when the pandemic first arrived. Now, that the September semester is here, it will be a different look for many.

Partisan trolls on social media can be harsh and create an unfriendly and sometimes unsafe space for political discourse. But, government efforts to sanitize political speech have put a damper on what Canadians are willing to say online. The UNPUBLISHED platform provides the tools and space for Canadians to engage more actively in our political system within a supportive and rules governed environment.
