Michigan State University is calling off all in-person classes until April 20 due to the coronavirus outbreak. MSU officials say they learned today of an individual linked to campus who is currently being monitored for the illness by the Ingham County Health Department. Classes are being moved to online only. MSU says students doing “purely remote work” can return home, and they are “strongly encouraging this because there are advantages for social distancing.” The East Lansing campus will remain open, but the university is evaluating large events that have already been scheduled. MSU previously suspended all nonessential university-sponsored travel to mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Italy and all university-sponsored travel is now suspended along with all non-essential domestic travel through April 20.
