COVID Updates and Guidelines

COVID-19, Flu, other viral illnesses 

 

  • Students and employees who test positive for COVID-19, or who are sick with other respiratory illnesses such as flu or RSV, only need to remain away from classes or campus until they have been fever-free for 24 hours without medication.
  • Those infected with COVID-19 will no longer be required to report their positive test result to the Health Center or Human Resources.
  • Students who test positive for COVID-19 should notify their faculty if they will need to miss class. As is the case with any illness, students should communicate directly with their faculty members to make arrangements for making up missed work.
  • Upon returning to class or work, we strongly recommend that you wear a mask indoors when around others for five days, consistent with CDC guidance.
  • Additionally, we strongly endorse other preventative strategies for reducing the spread of illness such as limiting close contact with others while ill and frequent hand-washing.
