Pause NC State classes during mandatory move-out


Pause NC State classes during mandatory move-out
The Issue
On Wednesday, 26 August 2020, NC State released a series of emails requiring students to move out of their on-campus housing (unless they have extenuating circumstances, wherein they would have to submit a housing request), only two (2) days after they announced that Undergraduate classes would be moved entirely online.
NC State University is allotting 30-minute move-out appointments over the course of eleven (11) days for students to move entirely off-campus.
The fact that NC State is closing its residential housing to students is not surprising. The problem that many students are facing right now though is midterms and first exams. On top of dealing with a pandemic, NC State is asking students to completely uproot after less than a month of moving in and still continue and complete their coursework. When this same situation presented itself in the Spring, students had Spring Break and the extended Spring Break to move out.
