Chancellor Henry T. Yang announced on Jan. 8 that UC Santa Barbara will allow its class instructors to decide whether or not to conduct classes in-person or remotely for Week 3 and Week 4 of Winter Quarter 2022. UCSB plans to resume full in-person instruction on Jan. 31.

Instructors have until Jan. 11 to tell their students whether they should expect their class to be online or in-person; however, students with instructors who choose to conduct classes in-person will have a remote option should they wish to stay online through January.
