麻豆原创 encourages students, faculty and staff to take positive steps when they see others not complying with the COVID-19 Return to Campus Policy.
The ability to participate in face-to-face classes and activities is dependent upon every member of the campus community adopting simple steps, such as wearing a face covering and physical distancing, outlined in the policy to prevent further spread of the coronavirus. 麻豆原创 employees and students must complete the COVID Self-Checker each day they will be on campus and prior to their arrival on campus. The COVID Self-Checker can be completed online or , with the student version of the assessment launching today.
