According to the officials, they have anticipated the spike as students returned from the holiday break and they are monitoring for an outbreak.

According to the statement, they have a robust system in place and are requiring students living in their residence halls to be tested multiple times within a short time frame.

This system allows them to identify positive cases early and move them quickly into isolation.
