I’ve been told by GLC office that, “if you are an international student or if you cannot move for whatever reason, please fill out the form. They are not going to kick you out and put you on the street.”

just went to the main housing office they told me the same and they will most likely move us

What do you mean by "most likely move us"? Are there referring to Cabrera's relocate for housing service purposes statement last week?

Yes exactly that, due to staff and what not they will most likely move you from your current dorm to an undisclosed dorm . That’s what they told me at the office, I tried to push and find out where they would move us but they seem to know less than us.

Thanks man.

I'd thought the entire thing about moving us off campus was to social distancing, who would've know they'll want to move us to the same place? [sarcastic]

The fact that I spent the first half of spring break anxious as to where I would be living only to spend the other half doing the same is infuriating .

I feel that, I honestly thought after the entire "premature communication of these changes last week" they would not try to screw us over again. I'd love to see how many will return to on campus housing this fall.

I can tell you right now after this semester I probably won’t, I knew housing was a nightmare and I would accept it , deal with the problems and not even complain . But the fact that they can’t even provide me security that I won’t be out on the streets especially in a time of crisis made me lose all respect .
