Florida State University raised the mandate of its presence in the class after the students protested the directive, which called them to return to the classroom just days after the mass fire on the campus, and they were wounded and six wounded.
The university announced on Saturday night that students and coaches will now have the option to attend the classrooms that start remotely on Monday, with the exemption of absence for those who choose not to attend at all.
“We want everyone to receive the support and assistance they need,” FSU, Richard McCulo, said in a letter to students and faculty.
“For some students who may mean not to return to the semester. For others, the idea of society and gathering may be, as well as the opportunity to focus on academics, useful. There is no correct answer for everyone.”
McCulo said that some training courses, such as the laboratory classes, would be personally resumed. But students who feel that they cannot complete the course will have an option to order an incomplete degree.
The decision came in response to the retreat from the students, who created a petition via the Internet to detonate the return of the fast university to the deadly scene as “inappropriate and not sensitive” and called for excused absence and learning from a distance for those who are still treating the shocking event.
“It is not good to ask students, who have just suffered from this painful moment, returning directly to where this happened soon,” said the petition, which obtained 1408 signatures.
“This will lead to extreme distress and panic, potentially for many, which we have already seen that she did this with the unimportant FSU organization to capture the elements in the place where the shooting occurred, the next day of its occurrence,” continued the petition.
“We got a week outside the school for snow; we can accommodate students who have almost lost their lives.”
The shooter, which was set by the police in the name of Phoenix Ekinner, is concerned with the start of its deadly rampage near the Student Union building on the campus, where the horrific shots of the only gunman who empties multiple rounds as a terrifying scene of the massacre and panic that did not reveal Thursday afternoon.
The 20 -year -old FSU student, the vice mayor of Lyon Province, used the former service pistol for his wife in the deadly attack, according to the police, who shot and arrested him shortly after responding to the scene.
Two of Aramark food service staff – Robert Morales, 57, and Tero Chahaba, 45, were killed in the deadly attack, and six others were injured.
The police did not reveal a mass fire motive.
Enerner was among those treated in a local hospital and is expected to survive.
