The University of Nebraska–Lincoln is temporarily shifting COVID-19 screening to all students living in on-campus congregate housing. Between Jan. 23-28, the updated protocol will test every student living in residence halls, fraternities and sororities.
The focused screening is driven by data gathered during the university’s two-week re-entry testing period, as well as how easy the Omicron variant spreads, particularly within populations living in close quarters. The testing strategy has been developed in partnership with the Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department.
Students who must test will be notified via email. Testing is available by appointment through the Safer Community app and COVID-19 Testing Portal, or via drop-in at a testing site.
