Tibor Besedes, the Mary S. and Richard B. Inman, Jr. Professor of Economics, published "Students’ Preferences for Returning to Colleges and Universities During the Covid-19 Pandemic: A Discrete Choice Experiment" in Socio-Economic Planning Sciences journal.

"We found that scenarios that offered an on-campus experience with large classes delivered online and small classes delivered in-person, strict safety protocols in terms of mask-wearing, testing, and residence halls, and lenient safety protocols in terms of social gatherings were broadly the scenarios with the highest expected enrollment probabilities," Besedes wrote in the paper.
