To be clear, the p/np passed at Michigan was retroactively optional. They are all moving to pass/non pass, but at the end of their semester, they have the choice to unveil their letter grade.
It’s inhumane to treat this situation with any degree of normalcy. This is not fine. Their proposal is not good enough. The literal rug of reality was ripped out from underneath all of our feet. Personally, I am afraid. I have 3 grandparents all 80+. Each one of them thinks they are invincible. I have a 7 year old cousin whose going to have a birthday party on Monday with no friends - his brother has asthma and his dad has underlying health conditions that put him at risk. 600 people died overnight in Italy. Millions of people became unemployed overnight. Everything is not fine.
The Ohio State Administration needs to respond as if this is a crisis because it is.
