INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — University of Indianapolis has extended its spring break in a “proactive approach” to preventing the spread of the coronavirus, university officials announced Wednesday.
The school’s spring break was originally scheduled for March 9-15. The break has been extended through Sunday, March 22.

The campus will remain open during this time, however all academic courses will be suspended.
