College Campuses and COVID-19 Interactive Map
Month: March 2020
|March 11, 2020
The college community around the United States has created a crowd-sourced Google Sheet to track college campus closures and the replacement of in-person classes with online versions as a result of COVID-19 issues. This map represents a visualization of that data with with circle size representing the enrollment of each institution. You can roll-over for notes and use the zoom and pan tools in the top left. Please note that the vast majority of college campuses listed have no confirmed cases of COVID-19 in their campus community, and are pro-actively closing or moving online out of “an abundance of caution.”
Since the document has become too popular and repeatedly times out, we have created a snapshot of the data here, and will updated it at least once a day.
