Regardless of vaccination, students, faculty, and staff who test positive or are exposed should submit the\u00a0COVID-19 Notification Form<\/a>\u00a0and a representative from the ACU Medical Clinic will reach out with instructions.<\/p>\n

From Jan. 6-21, face coverings will be required in classrooms, labs, studios and other instructional spaces, and indoor Chapel gatherings. In all other common interior spaces, masks are strongly recommended but not required.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Organizers of large events should consider moving them outdoors when possible to minimize interactions in close indoor spaces. Face coverings for faculty and staff, and physical distancing, are encouraged in office settings, as is the continued use of Zoom or other technology when appropriate for meetings.<\/p>\n

In addition, our policies for isolation and quarantine have changed to reflect the latest guidance from the Centers for Disease Control. Read the full details of this policy at\u00a0acu.edu\/coronavirus<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you have not been vaccinated or are due for a booster, we strongly recommend that you go to the\u00a0Medical Clinic<\/span><\/a>\u00a0as soon as possible.<\/strong>\u00a0You may make an appointment online\u00a0here<\/span><\/a>\u00a0or call 325-674-2625 to schedule. The Medical Clinic stocks Moderna and J&J vaccines, and they are available at no charge.<\/p>\n

We will continue to monitor CDC guidelines as they are updated and evaluate the pandemic\u2019s effect on our learning and living environments. On or before Jan. 23, we will reassess the COVID-19 landscape and let you know if we need to take additional action or revise these protocols.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
