New COVID guidelines
|
The new COVID guidelines for campus are available.
COVID-19 will be part of our lives for a long time and complacency will be our undoing. Therefore, we still need guidelines and we still need everyone in our community to follow them to keep our community safe.
Professor Tracy Smart will host a community forum this Friday 7 May to answer any questions you have about the guidelines.
