Campus family,
It’s hard to believe we are almost to Thanksgiving break. The end of the semester is in sight and you have all done a great job of helping us keep COVID cases low on campus. For most of the semester, we haven't had more than three or four cases at one time.
However, we are seeing an alarming spike in cases with more than 20 confirmed right now and another 25 in quarantine. Please help us limit COVID spread on campus so we can finish out the semester strong:
- Wear your mask when indoors (including vehicles). For group events such as the banquet on Sunday night—please keep your mask on unless you are actively eating.
- If you are sick, please stay in your room or at home and check in with VirtualCare to find out whether or not you should take a COVID test.
Expanded free on-campus testing
If you do need to take a COVID test, we are expanding the hours for our free on-campus testing center over the next two weeks.
November 8-11

Thanks for all you do to make the Union College community a great place to learn and grow. Let’s do our best to keep each other safe and healthy.
God bless,
Vinita Sauder
