My university released these stats yesterday:
Quote:
Mitigation testing for the week of August 31 expanded to all of our campuses. Students, faculty, and staff were tested at each. We additionally focused on students living in residence halls and communal housing (Greek houses) in order to quickly identify and isolate positive cases to prevent spread to others. We also sampled additional off-campus students in Bloomington.
At IU Bloomington, the rate of positive results within Greek houses is concerning; the rate in our residence halls is an increase from last week, although similar to what other universities with robust testing programs have seen.
The week of August 31:
The positivity rate among communal living (Greek houses) was 24.56% of 1,421 test results.
The positivity rate among residence halls was 3.64% of 4,201 test results.
The positivity rate among Greek-affiliated students who don't live in their organizations' houses was 13.7% of 540 test results.
The positivity rate for all other off-campus students was 4.66% of 1,395 test results.
At IUPUI the week of August 31*:
There were no positive cases among the 185 test results from the residence halls.
The positivity rate for off-campus students was 0.95% of 739 test results.
Among all 1,056 faculty and staff test results across all campuses, there was a 0.48% positivity rate.*
