[AI-Generated Summary] In this edition of IU NewsNet Daily from October 2, 2020, host Andrew Lamparski reports a third consecutive weekly drop in Indiana University’s COVID-19 cases, even as three additional Greek houses—Sigma Phi Epsilon, Lambda Sigma Epsilon, and Omega Phi Beta—received cease and desist orders for violating health regulations. Despite the declining cases, the university’s COVID-19 dashboard received a "C-plus" grade from experts for failing to provide daily data updates. National news also broke regarding President Trump’s positive COVID-19 test, while local attention turned to the upcoming October 5th voter registration deadline and the transition of the 30th anniversary IU Dance Marathon to a virtual format. Additionally, the segment highlights how freshmen are utilizing social media to build community during the pandemic and notes that the upcoming marathon continues its mission to support Riley Hospital for Children, which has benefited from over $40 million in student fundraising since 1991.
