During this time period, 25 positive cases have been identified. Most of those cases occurred off-campus.  

  • 90% of in-person or on-campus students have attested to their vaccination status for winter quarter.  
  • Stay home if you’re sick. If you suspect having been exposed to someone with COVID-19, are experiencing symptoms, or have tested positive, fill out a COVID-19 exposure report.  For your convenience, here are a few locations offering testing:  

If you are otherwise healthy with mild symptoms and cannot find testing availability, you should presume that you have COVID-19 and self-isolate according to current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines

  • KN-95 masks have been ordered for front-line staff and for faculty who are teaching in-person and will be distributed as soon as they arrive, hopefully early next week.  
  • The vaccine clinic is now in the Quiet Dining Room in the PUB. Walk-ins are welcome; just tell them you are a college employee.  Boosters for ages 12-15 are not available at this time. The public should make an appointment for the Shoreline site.  
  • The Parent-Child Center closed temporarily. Updates on reopening will be provided directly to parents with enrolled children as soon as information is available.
