Close universities and colleges, and move all lectures online

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the government to close universities and colleges as we can easily be facilitated online. It is not fair to put students, staff, families and loved ones at risk when we can be online.

I want to government to do this because, if we are at a stage where a national lockdown is required then we should all get the same message to stay at home. It's not fair for the government to put students at risk, especially when they are some of the main carriers of Covid-19.
