Campus Updates 2/24/22

Hi Campus Community,

Here are this week’s updates!

RETURN TO CAMPUS/COVID-19
No new daily positive cases in the last 7 days.

You may have heard about changes in COVID-19 protocols in the news; this is how they affect the College:

Masking indoors is still required. While Washington state’s indoor mask mandate will be lifted on March 21, King County’s indoor mask order is still in effect for now. While the outdoor mask mandate was lifted as of February 18, the College encourages masking in crowded outdoor settings.

As of March 1, 2022, verification of vaccination will no longer be required for indoor recreational events (like theatre productions) and large outdoor events in King County.

For your spring quarter 2022 planning:

Campus operating hours:

Monday-Thursdays 8 am-5 pm: all services will be available in person, as well as online.
Fridays 8am – 4:30 pm: all services will be available online. Some services will be offered in person as well, as approved.

Employee work schedules:

Classified and administrative exempt staff will work on campus a minimum of 3 days/week during Monday-Thursday (or during Monday-Friday, if approved).
Faculty librarians, counselors, and advisors will work on campus a minimum of 2-3 days/week during Monday-Thursday (or during Monday-Friday, if approved).

Specific faculty offices will be maintained and cleaned daily throughout the quarter, as identified by the Division Dean. Communicate with your Dean. Meeting with students one-on-one or for office hours can take place in maintained faculty offices or online during spring quarter.
Non-instructional activities, events, and rentals will still need to be requested/approved via the Activities Request form.

Parking fees will continue to be on hold (i.e. parking remains free).
