Utica College has postponed its spring semester start date by one week, and will begin Monday, Jan.

25.

The first big change.... the college will start one week later.

U.c.

Plans on classes beginning monday, january 25th, instead of january 18th to give studnets that much more time afet rthe holidays to be tested and covid free when they come to campus.

Students will stay on campus right through the end of the semester.... eliminating the spring break so they don't travel and bring back the virus to campus.

Every student and every faculty member will continue to be tested once a week to prevent an outbreak.... something that the school has been able to do so far.
