当地时间4月1日，美国加州州长纽森在疫情媒体发布会上表示，鉴于加州疫情的迅速扩散，加州所有学校今年整个学年都不会再开门，此决定将持续到今年9月份待新学年的开始。那么美国大学2020秋季是否推迟开学？

普林斯顿大学Princeton University ：As of now, the University still plans to hold classes as scheduled for the fall semester.

现在，我们计划让学生们在秋季进入校园，并在正常日期开始上课。当然，这种情况可能会改变，因此我们鼓励您定期查看我们2024级的网页进行更新，但目前我们计划进行一个正常的秋季学期。

罗彻斯特大学University of Rochester ：Since we have seen things change day-by-day, it is too early to predict what will happen by the end of summer.  We are keeping a close eye on things and will let you know when we make that decision.  If students are not allowed back on campus or International students are not allowed to travel, we will make adjustments to online classes if necessary.  We are all hopeful this will not happen, but it is too early to predict.

就目前的情况来看，我们并不知道秋季学期能否如往年一样正常进行。

因为距离9月份开学还有很长一段时间，所以大部分学校目前还是按着秋季正常开学做准备，同时在积极观望疫情影响。正如钟南山院士表示“不可能永远不开学，这个病也不可能铲除得一干二净，没有造成大规模暴发就行了。”
