If COVID cases continue to stay low after UCLA students return from spring break, they won't be required to wear masks anymore. This puts some disabled students at higher risk for severe outcomes if they contract the virus.
The sit-in lasted 16 days and ended with a slew of agreements."It was a very successful sit-in, in my opinion, on DSU's front," O'Connor said. Still, the group's biggest demand, mandating that professors provide remote options for classes, just wasn't going to happen.
In the meantime, UCLA is taking steps to make it easier for professors to offer remote access. These include hiring additional students to act as remote learning assistants to help faculty live-stream their classes and improve accessibility for disabled students by, for example, making sure live captioning is turned on.
In a statement, UCLA spokesperson Bill Kisliuk said"both the administration and the Academic Senate endorse instructor flexibility in meeting students' COVID-related and accessibility needs. Livestreaming or recording classes remain powerful tools for addressing student needs."
