Postsecondary education: COVID-19 safety and liability.

Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges, under the administration of the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges, the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, the University of California, under the administration of the Regents of the University of California, independent institutions of higher education, and private postsecondary educational institutions as the segments of postsecondary education in the state. This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact subsequent legislation that would create clarity on a standard of care on COVID-19 safety and a temporary and targeted limitation on COVID-19 liability at postsecondary educational institutions in the state as they work to reopen for in-person instruction.
