News

August 18th, 2021 by admin

(Radio Iowa) Students have started moving back to campus at Iowa State University in Ames. Provost Jonathan Wickert, says the fall semester will see things get back to more normal operation after changes for the pandemic.

Wickert says they will have mostly in-person classes, with some online and hybrid classes as well.

Wickert says they in a way have two incoming first-year classes.

He says those second-year students will be getting a more full look at what is like to be on campus and have in-person classes. The Board of Regents says masks aren’t required this year — but Wickert says they are strongly encouraged indoors. The same goes for vaccinations. Wickert says the faculty have been provided standard statements on masks and vaccination they can cut and paste into their class materials.

Wickert says they have received some petitions from students and faculty asking the school to request that the Board of Regents require masks.

Wickert says. ISU residence hall officials say they’ve had a big demand for people wanting to live on campus and they have opened up another dorm to accommodate them.

(Radio Iowa) Practice makes perfect for Iowa running Back Tyler Goodson. The junior is coming off an All Big Ten season in 2020 in which he had more than 900 yards of total offense in a COVID shortened eight game schedule. He is a key returning weapon for the 18th ranked Hawkeyes.

That’s Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz who says Goodson’s practice habits are a big reason for his success.

Goodson says a focus for him in fall camp has been pass blocking.

Goodson says his practice habits helped him see a lot of action as a true freshman in 2019.

And Goodson believes those practice habits will help him reach the next level.

The Hawkeyes open September fourth at home against Indiana.
