Students back on campus for first day of spring 2021 semester

Tulane’s campuses brimmed with excitement as students began the spring semester. In-person classes began on Tuesday, Jan. 19, on the uptown campus. While Tulane has enhanced efforts to protect the campus community and city residents, the university is also expanding opportunities for students to interact socially, meet new people and enjoy outdoor programs and other COVID-safe activities both on campus and throughout our great city.

Nearly 95 percent of students are back on campus this spring, indicating a strong preference among students for an in-person, on-campus university experience.

Among other changes this semester, improvements have been made to classroom technology such as equipping faculty with headsets and microphones to further enhance socially distanced teaching and learning.
