Where Does Your College Stand?
VA Campus Response to Student Demands

College students across Virginia are deeply impacted by the pandemic, and our universities are failing to protect students, workers, and faculty in the time that we need it most. Virginia Student Power Network (VSPN) has issued a set of demands for each university - check out our scorecard below to see how your college stacks up.

Information is gathered from each college website. The scorecard will be updated on a weekly basis as campuses send out updates.

Don’t see your college on the card? We unfortunately either could not find enough or any information we could use to add it. If you want to add your college or know of any responses to these demands, please feel free to contact us at vastudentpower@gmail.com.

UPDATED 5.19.2020: Some scores have been lowered due to recent university decisions.

See our “Campus Response” tab for more information about your university.
