We got similar news at Cornell today, with professors being advised to go online asap but will be forced to in early April which is also when students will be sent home. The problem here is that most upperclassmen live off-campus and can't be forced to disperse. Furthermore, many students are from NYC where they'll visit during spring break and then come back to Ithaca. The atmosphere on campus is very nonchalant; most are more upset by cancelled events than the possibility of encountering the virus.
