More than inconvenienced: Recommendations for Moving Forward

Using data to guide decisions making is a crucial way for institutions to determine their priorities moving forward, and assessment findings should serve as the foundation for public health and other interventions, which will ideally be instituted at multiple levels within the institution.
A recent study found that college students have insufficient knowledge about COVID-19, with primary sources of information being the internet and social media, so higher education institutions should better utilize academic resources so they can become trusted sources of information on COVID-19 and support.
Many institutions already have campus-based resources for students (health, counseling, etc.), and these entities should be prioritized as a critical investment in student success amid budget cuts due to COVID-19.
Students support services must be established and implemented with an equity lens, recognizing that the most marginalized college populations are especially affected by COVID-19 amidst already existing health disparities and achievement gaps.
