Student Policies and Compliance

All students will be expected to quarantine on campus until the college has completed its baseline testing process and received the results (anticipated to take slightly over 2 weeks). Students will not be permitted to leave campus during this period of time. They will be permitted to attend classes and other activities as long as they observe physical distancing, face covering, hand hygiene and other health and safety guidelines. Students who do not reside on campus will be expected to quarantine at home when not on campus.

After the initial quarantine/baseline testing process is complete, students are allowed to leave campus to socialize or work in surrounding communities. All students are expected to practice care with keeping personal distance from others. Face coverings must be worn and students must avoid groups of 10 or more in close proximity, which includes gatherings of friends at off-campus houses. Students are expected to practice appropriate handwashing upon return to campus. We recommend that face coverings and clothing be washed frequently.

Students will be allowed to complete off-campus academic internships and are expected to practice the same precautions they will observe when leaving campus to work or socialize.

Speak with the department chair for your major as well as with your academic advisor. They are aware of requirements and know of any alternatives that will suffice if necessary.

Students are discouraged from traveling. We ask that you remain on or close to campus. If you must travel, consult with your class dean well before you would have to leave campus.

If you see a student who is not adhering to the community pledge and standards, please ask them to do so. You may also contact your class dean or the dean of students, who will meet with that student for a conversation about compliance with the standards and pledge.

You may bring a car to campus if you are living in a hotel. You must register your car with the Parking Office and will be given a Commuter Permit free of charge.
