This is the app that the university says is the best way for your student to stay safe, updates, call for help. And it won’t even load. We just spent an hour learning about all the things it does, how vital it is, and it won’t even load.

Ludicrous
The university has used this app as a tech platform to punish instructors and see mistrust between instructors and their students. Utterly shameful

Stop Asking Students to Snitch on Instructors
UF clearly disregards instructor safety in the face of very real COVID concerns
