A remotely based student claimed Tuesday he is barred from taking online classes at Rutgers University because he has not been vaccinated.
Rutgers, the first university in the U.S. to mandate vaccination for students, is threatening to disconnect email access and deny campus housing for all students who don’t comply with its vaccination mandate, Politco reports.
Some colleges used similar tactics last year to get students to follow testing procedures or risk exclusion.
Logan Hollar, 22, told NJ.com he largely ignored the school’s coronavirus mandate “because all my classes were remote” from his Sandyston home, a distance of some 70 miles from the university’s principle campus in New Brunswick.
