520    COVID-19 has placed American higher education at a 
       crossroads. This book is the road map. COVID-19 triggered 
       an existential crisis for American higher education. Faced
       with few safe choices, most colleges and universities 
       switched to remote learning during the 2020 spring 
       semester. The future, however, provides more choices about
       how institutions can fulfill their mission of teaching and
       research. But how do we begin to make decisions in an 
       uncertain and shifting environment? In this concise guide,
       authors Edward J. Maloney and Joshua Kim lay out clear 
       ways colleges and universities can move forward in safe 
       and effective ways. The Low-Density University presents 
       fifteen scenarios for how colleges and universities can 
       address the current crisis from a fully online semester to
       others with students in residence and in the classroom. 
       How can changing the calendar or shifting to hybrid models
       of blended classrooms impact teaching, learning, and the 
       college experience? Could we emerge from this crisis with 
       new models that are better and more adapted to today's 
       world?  The Low-Density University focuses primarily on 
       teaching and learning, but student life (housing, 
       athletics, health, etc.) are core to the college 
       experience. Can we devise safe and effective ways to 
       preserve the best of that experience? The lessons here 
       extend beyond the classroom. Just as the pandemic will 
       change American higher education, the choices we make now 
       will change what college looks like for generations to 
       come.
