A Wisconsin university asked members of nine fraternities and sororities to quarantine after 38 students tested positive for the coronavirus, officials announced. The University of Wisconsin-Madison and Dane County health officials asked 420 students to quarantine for two weeks following the positive results, the university announced in a statement. "Our goal is to stop any further spread of the virus among our students and the broader community," said Jake Baggott, executive director of University Health Services. The university had barred students from hosting parties in their rooms, but they defied the orders. “Northeastern and its community of students, faculty, and staff take violations of health and safety protocols very seriously,” Vice Chancellor Madeleine Estabrook said.
