The president of the Board of Regents says they will continue to try and get vaccinations for everyone at the three state universities — but Michael Richards says they won’t require them. He did encourage students at Iowa State University, the University of Iowa, and the University of Northern Iowa to get a vaccination.

Richards noted that some colleges in the U-S are requiring student vaccinations. The Regents voted to approve the proposed room and board rates. The most popular double residence hall room and meal plan at the  University of Iowa will go up two-point-six-nine percent. The rates at Iowa State University will drop on those plans by one-point-one-four percent — while the rates at U-N-I will stay the same.
