The University of Minnesota athletics department released the following statement regarding the return of student-athletes to campus:
The University of Minnesota athletic department announced today its plans for a gradual approach to bring student-athletes back to campus. Student-athletes who choose to return to campus are doing so voluntarily, and all scholarships will be honored if a student-athlete decides not to return to campus for the fall semester.
Members of the football team will be the first to return to campus and will be followed by student-athletes for men’s basketball, women’s basketball, soccer and volleyball.
