LSSU professors to teach in person this fall

SAULT STE. MARIE, MI--   Lake Superior State University is returning to face-to-face instruction in the fall and is adjusting its academic calendar.

Instead of beginning August 24, classes will start August 10 and the semester will end prior to the Thanksgiving holiday. Officials say without the traditional holiday break, students can study without interruption and won’t need to travel at the beginning of cold and flu season.

LSSU’s spring semester will start later than usual. Spring break is being shifted so the university will be in continuous operation for the term. Officials say it will also minimize the risk associated with spring travel.

Current plans have the spring 2021 semester starting January 19 and ending April 30.
