UM planning for fall semester, return to “face-to-face” learning

(KPAX) The University of Montana has announced they are working on plans for "face-to-face" instruction for the fall semester.

UM emailed all current students on Monday to let them know they will "be back on campus this fall" for face-to-face instruction.

Students who have not yet completed their fall registration are being encouraged to do so, according to a Twitter post from UM.

The letter, sent out by UM Vice Provost for Student Success Sarah Swager, states UM "is working with various groups on campus to provide the safest environment possible."

The Montana University System replaced in-class teaching with remote learning on March 23 due to COVID-19 concerns.

MTN News has reached out to the University of Montana for more details and will update as more information becomes available.
