American colleges and universities are shifting to start the spring semester remotely, despite taking millions in government funding intended to help them stay open.
Columnist Bill McGurn reacts to an increasing number of schools considering remote learning in response to the COVID surge on 'Fox Business Tonight.'
However, many schools that received the government funding are now beginning their spring 2022 semester with remote learning. When the CARES Act was signed into law in March 2020, it required that institutions using money from the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund use 50% of the funding received for direct financial-assistance grants to students. The remaining amount of money could be used for costs relating to the coronavirus pandemic.
