Two students were slated to participate in the program for the semester. One will return home and other had not left for South Korea yet and will remain in the U-S.
UWS Interim Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, Maria Cuzzo, says they take student safety and well-being seriously and are acting out of an abundance of caution.
