Dear 香港六合彩官网资料 faculty, staff and students,

This month, the Centers for Disease Control updated its . 香港六合彩官网资料 has been following CDC guidance and observing what other universities are doing, and remains vigilant about preventing virus transmission on our campuses and in the communities we serve.

Two items currently under discussion at 香港六合彩官网资料 include whether we will mandate the COVID-19 vaccination for students and/or employees, and how we will approach physical distancing in classrooms and at events and other in-person activities.

We are currently considering different approaches, including some hybrid strategies. Examples could include options for one or more 鈥渁ll vaccinated鈥 residence halls on campus and flexible spacing in classrooms where 6 foot physical distancing is available for those who wish to remain unvaccinated. We expect face coverings in some manner to remain with us.

In next week鈥檚 COVID-19 email, I will provide guidance on 香港六合彩官网资料鈥檚 plan for fall regarding vaccines and social distancing in more detail. I will base this on discussions with the UA system president, 香港六合彩官网资料 Operations Support Team and the Chancellor鈥檚 Cabinet, input from the Faculty Senate COVID-19 committee, as well as your input on a few questions. Please take a moment to share with me your thoughts on by Friday, June 25.
  • Should there be a COVID-19 vaccination requirement for residential students?
  • Should there be a COVID-19 vaccination requirement for all in-person students?
  • Should we allow for flexible spacing in classrooms (6 feet spacing for portions of classrooms and in event spaces)?
  • What vaccine incentives could the university offer?
I鈥檇 like to thank fire Chief Doug Schrage for his 11 years of service to 香港六合彩官网资料 and for his leadership as the Operations Support Team lead since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Chief Schrage has worked tirelessly and thoughtfully with the OST to ensure 香港六合彩官网资料s response to COVID-19 has been safe and well-informed. Tracy Martinson, director of environmental, safety and risk management, will be serving as the new OST lead. I thank her for stepping up to this important role.

As we move into Phase C over the summer and predominantly to in-person work, I know there may be questions. Please work with your supervisor as you transition back to the office. As outlined in the , employees who are continuing to work partially or fully from home need to with their supervisor. UA Human Resources has been conducting Q&A sessions regarding Operational Phase C return to work guidelines. The last session will be held . If you have any questions about these transitions for you or your staff, please contact UA Human Resources at ua-hr@alaska.edu or call 907-450-8200.

Thank you for your engagement and hard work. I look forward to your feedback regarding vaccines and incentives 鈥 please be sure to fill out the form and share your thoughts with me.

Thank you for choosing 香港六合彩官网资料.

鈥 Dan White, chancellor
