Change in process for requesting access to campus buildings
As noted in the university’s July 30 message, Â鶹´«Ã½ is ready for limited expansion to on-campus course and research offerings. At this time, the university remains focused on continuing to have employees work remotely to keep density as low as possible on campus and to maintain physical distancing for those whose work requires them to be on campus.
The university has implemented a new, decentralized process that will ensure we can track who is on campus at any given time and provide greater efficiency to the process. This new process will continue to limit building use for only those who require it. If you need to come to campus, you no longer need to fill out the Exceptional Request for One-Time Building Access Form. Instead, email your unit contact (at least 48 hours in advance) to let them know the desired date and location of your visit. Please wait until your unit contact has responded to confirm your request before you visit campus so we can ensure physical distancing remains possible.
Note: The university requires anyone on campus to wear a non-medical mask or face covering. Additionally, you must complete COVID-19 health and safety training in advance of coming to campus. Register for training on the university’s .
