Officials at the Ohio State University at Mansfield/North Central State College say they are looking forward to offering more in-person classes as soon as possible, but they have learned that many students seem to like the online learning formats that became the norm during the coronavirus pandemic. Norman Jones, dean and director of OSU-Mansfield, said, "I am deeply grateful to our faculty and staff for creating safe, virtual ways of doing so much of what we would normally do in person. We changed from having about 10% of our classes online to having 60% of classes online, and most of the remaining 40% had substantial online components in addition to meeting in person.
