Advisories

Our community is advised to take extra precaution.

Self-identification of symptoms is very important. Members of our community have been quick to report symptoms to the COVID-19 office, leading to rapid identification and quarantine of close contacts, thereby protecting the community.

What you can do:

To keep yourself and others safe, members of our community with symptoms should self-quarantine immediately and notify . Immediate reporting of symptoms allows us to stop the spread of COVID-19 across campus. To bring the rate of infection down:

  1. Do not visit other residence halls, apartments or fraternity houses besides your own.
  2. Do not hold or attend unapproved social gatherings in residential spaces.
  3. If you are in quarantine, remain in your room and adhere to all quarantine policies.
  4. Live the commitment we made, the Albion Community Commitment.

Office of the President
