which suspension shall end when the College resumes normal operation, that is, at the time at which mode-of-instruction in the College is no longer significantly affected, in a way that increases online offerings, as a result of concerns about the spread of COVID19. This suspension is meant to waive the above-cited rule for all and only students enrolled during the semesters in which course modality was affected by concerns about the spread of COVID19, that is, from Spring 2020 to the time at which normal instructional practices resume in the College, unaffected by COVID19. In the event that there is any significant disagreement regarding what counts as the time at which the College has resumed normal operations, that matter will be resolved by a vote of the Arts and Sciences Council (or any College-level faculty governance body 鈥 such as an Arts and Sciences Faculty Senate 鈥 that has been put in place of the Arts and Sciences Council).听
