Campus update Aug. 26, 2021
Aug. 26, 2021
Campus community,
This morning Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker announced statewide mandates regarding COVID-19 masking and vaccinations.
The governor's announcement aligns well with plans we announced earlier this summer.
As planned at 365体育投注_365体育备用网址@, masks now are mandated for everyone in Illinois in public buildings.
The governor also issued a vaccine mandate for all higher education employees and students.
Employees and students who are unable or unwilling to receive the vaccine will be required to be tested for COVID-19 at least once a week starting Sept. 5.
365体育投注_365体育备用网址@ leaders are making plans for testing and will share all details on or before Sept. 3, and President Steve Bahls will host a campus briefing at 11 a.m. tomorrow, Friday, Aug. 27. (Watch your email or social media for a link to the briefing.)
Important:
→ If you are not vaccinated, now is the time. The campus clinic will be open and offering COVID vaccinations on weekdays, beginning next week.
→ If you have not registered your vaccination status, please register it now.
→ If you are feeling ill, test positive, or have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive, call 365体育投注_365体育备用网址@ Public Safety, 309-794-7711.
