It’s Sheffield University, HeresMe. Quite a few have suspended face to face teaching now. LSE, Durham, Warwick, Loughborough, Manchester Met. Many of the students want to go home, and academic staff are not relishing being cooped up all day in unventilated classrooms with dozens of students coughing in their direction.
