Meropi Kyriacou Honored as TNH Educator of the Year

MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers has extended the state’s mask mandate scheduled to expire next week until Nov. 21.
Evers announced the extension on Tuesday, citing soaring cases in the state, particularly on college campuses.
Conservatives have a pending lawsuit challenging his legal authority to issue such a mandate. The mask order has been in place since August.
Evers says the growth in cases in Wisconsin, especially on college campuses, is “alarming.” He called on young people to “please stay home as much as you are able, skip heading to the bars, and wear a mask whenever you go out.”
Despite the surge of cases on University of Wisconsin campuses, Evers has stood by university leaders’ decision to open dorms and allow in-person instruction. But as the virus spread quickly among students, campuses across the state have had to quarantine dorms, fraternity and sorority houses, and temporarily shift to online-only classes.
