-Carefully consider vaccination against COVID-19, prior to the start of the semester.
-Practice health hygiene precautions, including the frequent washing of hands and staying at home in the case of sickness, except to seek medical attention.
-Regularly check your campus email and this webpage for up-to-date information and official notices on all university policies related to COVID-19.
