Re: COVID-19 Testing for Start of Spring Semester
Date: January 20, 2023

As we look forward to the start of the spring semester, we encourage community members to take a COVID test upon returning to campus. We will be extending testing center hours next week to accommodate our returning students and faculty members. Individual PCR and rapid tests will be available at the center (in the College Club).

Testing Center Hours

Date Testing Day(s) Hours
January 22 Sunday 12 to 4 p.m.
January 23-29 Monday through Friday 7 to 11 a.m.; 12 to 4 p.m.
From January 30 onward Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays 7 to 11 a.m.; 12 to 4 p.m.

Consistent with our current policy, masking is optional on campus, with the exception of classrooms, Health Services/Counseling, and in the testing center, where they are required. For the first week of classes, we recommend that community members consider masking indoors, especially when meeting in groups.
