REFUND FOR STUDENT ROOM AND BOARD UMN

The Issue

Due to the outbreak of the coronavirus, in person classes have been canceled and students living on campus have been going home for their safety. The average student pays upwards of 5,000 dollars or more for their room and board at the University of Minnesota. The University has decided to refund student 1,200 dollars for the rest of the semester. This discrepancy is unjust seeing as some students have lived on campus for only 6 weeks of the semester. Many students have also taken out loans to pay for their costs. The University of Minnesota instructed students to stay home after spring break due to this pandemic but isn’t compensating students the right amount for their losses. This petition is aimed to push administration to give students their rightful compensation of at least 2500 dollars.  Sign with your x500
