The University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point is extending its event cancellations through Tuesday, June 30 as a further precaution to reduce the risk of spreading the coronavirus (COVID-19).
All in-person campus-sponsored events are canceled through the end of June, following CDC guidelines. A decision on campus-sponsored events happening after July 1 will be made by May 15.
All summer courses beginning prior to July 1, 2020, will be through online or alternative delivery methods. The College of Natural Resources’ May/June field experience will be moved to later in the summer in the hope that current restrictions will be relaxed by then.
