Williams College Tightens COVID-19 Restrictions Ahead of Spring Term
Williams College students will be required to provide proof of a recent negative test for COVID-19 before they can return and be tested by the college for the start of the spring semester.
On Friday, Dean of the College Marlene Sandstrom issued a campus wide email that begins to lay out the restrictions the college will have in place as it begins its second academic term during the pandemic.
The bottom line: students will face tighter restrictions due to the nature of the winter season, the current spread of the novel coronavirus nationwide and the increase in the number of students planning to be on campus.
According to her email, between 300 and 350 more students have decided that a return to the North Berkshire campus is the right choice for them.
