We will begin to adjust the number of on-site events, and engagements while monitoring the levels and infection rates in our community.

We want to give students the best possible service to get connected to aid in their success while focusing on safety.

Indoor masking is strongly encouraged.

Our ability to maintain on-site operations relies on each of us taking responsibility to:
  • get vaccinated or boosted
  • continue wearing masks while indoors
  • self-report COVID-19 exposure or diagnosis
  • quarantine as needed


While COVID-19 is shaping our approach, we remain committed to evaluating how we can adapt to balance the needs of our organization and students.We are hopeful that these safety measures will allow us to ensure the health of our students and employees.
