The decision is out. They are opening the dorms and plan to resume some classes in-person on 9/21. However, the course delivery model for certain courses might change over the next few days. If you have all-online courses, they're giving you another chance to back out of your housing contract and stay home.
My son was anxiously awaiting the email all morning but did not seem as excited as I expected about it.
Three of his 5 classes currently have a face-to-face component scheduled. If that holds, he'll "have to" go back. (Or else drop the classes, which is really not feasible at this point. They're almost a month into the semester, so too late to add a new class. If he drops all three of the in-person classes, he'd lose his full-time status, which would affect his scholarship and his insurance.) However, it's possible that those classes will move online before classes actually resume.
So, for now, I guess we move ahead as though he *is* going back. But, who knows!
Edited to add: I really thought I'd feel "better" to have an answer either way... but I'm not sure that I do.
