The Star Tribune ran an article today about the number of COVID cases on college campuses this fall. You can read the full article here.

The article quoted LeadMN Executive Director Mike Dean that the student vaccination rates "are not where they need to be." In fact the vaccination rates vary greatly between the colleges and universities across the state, you can see the chart below to see how your college is doing.

"If we're going to address the COVID pandemic and get back to normal, we really need to engage students on a peer-to-peer level," Dean said, calling for the system to better encourage students to get vaccinated.

LeadMN will continue to urge colleges to do more to support student to student outreach to help boost vaccination rates.
