The University of Northern Iowa began welcoming athletes back to campus beginning today with veteran football players. It is part of a staggered process that will have all athletes back by the end of the month.
UNI athletic director David Harris.
Harris says athletes will be monitored daily.
Harris believes bringing back sports at different times is the safest approach.
Panther football coach Mark Farley says about 60 percent of the team has returned and with it comes a responsibility.
Farley says they will take extra precautions to make sure players are separated as much as possible.
Farley is more confident there will be a complete season with fans but it is not what the team is focused on.
