Reopening FAQ of the day

How will health screening of students work during the fall 2020 semester?

Students will be required to complete an online health screening each day.

This screening will take the form of a questionnaire. It will require students to take and report their temperature, ask them to indicate the presence of COVID-19 symptoms and ask them to report any exposure to confirmed cases.

If indicated by answers, the individual will be directed to quarantine and contact Student Health Service. Students reporting COVID-19 symptoms or exposure will not be allowed on campus or outside of their residence until cleared by Student Health Service.

The College's fall 2020 reopening plan is highly detailed and dense, and our corresponding list of FAQs runs to nearly 10,000 words (and counting!). In an effort to make this very important information more digestible for campus community members, we're highlighting questions and answers in this newsletter, one per day, as the fall semester approaches.

Please note: We are working to update and add FAQs as planning continues and this situation evolves. We will prioritize sharing the most current information in this space.
