We all want to leave the online platform behind and get back to our college experience. We are asking that with the recent announcement that the 2021-2022 academic school year at CU Boulder will be attempting to return to normal, that the University make the COVID-19 vaccine mandatory for all students. Rutgers University has already decided to do this and other universities are considering it as well. Every student at CU is already required to have two dose of the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccine, it would be very easy to add the COVID-19 vaccine to this list.

In the past year it has become clear that the University is interested in saying the right thing instead of doing the right thing. It is time for the University to care less about their bottom line and put their students' education first, if you agree we urge you to sign and share.
