In order to protect both our campus and our local community, Albion has partnered with a number of local businesses that have agreed to participate in full testing of all employees. This will reduce risk of infection entering from outside or an infection on campus spreading to the community.
We are proud to work with the businesses below who are committed to the Albion community and will safely offer food and services to Albion students. Students do not need to use the off-campus travel form in order to leave campus to visit these businesses, and we encourage students and visiting families to patronize them.
In addition, all drive-thru options within the city limits of Albion are approved for students:
We have partnered with the following companies to offer safe, discounted grocery services to students. When students leave campus to access these services, they should register their travel using the off-campus travel form, but will be automatically approved.
If you would like to travel off-campus to pick up groceries at Meijer or Kroger yourself (in your own vehicle), you must fill out the request for off-campus travel form prior to leaving campus, but your request will automatically be approved, and you do not need to wait for written approval.
In keeping with our public health and safety protocols which include significantly minimizing exposure to possible infection through time away from campus for all students, we have developed a process to facilitate student requests to travel off-campus and receive visitors. Students can submit requests to travel and work off-campus, register visitors, or manage their travel as a commuter student using the forms available on the Student Life page.
