COVID-19 Update from Chancellor Ronnie Green

Going Forward – Random Mitigation Testing
If our positivity rates remain low in this third round of testing and we don’t see unexpected spikes or outbreaks of COVID cases in our community, we will then move to random mitigation testing.

Within a day of receiving your third test result, your Safer Community app will reflect your required testing as complete and that no future tests need to be scheduled at this time. It will remain in this status until/unless you are selected for the randomized testing. If you are selected, you will be notified via email, and the app will show the date by which you will need to complete your saliva test. These randomized tests will be required.

Final confirmation on the randomized mitigation testing and more details on how it will work will be provided once we have the data from the third round of re-entry tests. We expect to be able to communicate this to campus by the week of February 15. Continue reading…

CASNR CAREER FAIR EVENT OPEN TODAY, FEBR 9
