After the tragic mass shooting on Michigan State University’s campus that occurred February 13th, 2023 students are ill at ease with returning to a campus that is not fully equipped to fulfill their safety concerns. It was announced that in person classes will be resumed on February 20th, 2023. However, with such stressing concerns from parents and students on campus safety,  returning one week after a mass shooting has left many unsettled. This petition is a proposal to have hybrid or online options for students and parents who are uncomfortable with returning to campus with such haste. With Michigan State University being a public campus and an ongoing investigation, it is believed it is in the students best interests to be given a call of action to move forward with the school year. Not as away to evade “normalcy” by not returning to in person classes but safely. After the egregious events that happened this week, student’s and faculty’s safety should not be treated lightly. This is an urgent proposal, and is a stand for our fellow Spartans to safely and successfully finish the semester !
