Recently, UK presented re-testing students in fraternities and sororities because they had 2% higher amounts of cases than the rest of the University. I rushed and just joined a sorority and I can see why their numbers are so high. There’s about 60+ girls living in each sorority house so I am sure it is hard to keep things under control there. As a university I feel like the numbers are actually starting to go up. I feel like recently I have actually known more than a few people come down with the virus and have to self isolate. It would make sense because the cases in Kentucky in general are going up a lot as well.

As of now, I don’t see the university closing before the end of the semester. I think UK has done well at contact tracing and following health guidelines. I think they also have a good system with moving students out who have the virus to prevent more spread. The University is very big, so it will probably take a little longer for us to reach a high percentage of cases in the campus community. I do see that a few more classes may have to go online, but the ones that are in person now are safe to stay in person I believe.
