A colleague’s return to campus does not imply or necessitate your own. If you are being encouraged to come to campus but do not feel it is warranted, you should speak with your manager or unit head. The same is true if you have concerns about returning to campus for personal safety and well-being reasons.
Staff are primarily working remotely until further notice, although essential personnel—including staff working to support the delivery of our educational programs and other core functions—are coming to campus. Faculty who are teaching and in other ways engaging with students, with personal or family situations that make office use preferable, and who prefer to carry out research work at the School are able to be on campus at this time, assuming the Campus Access Protocol (including training) has been completed. Doctoral Students hoping to use their offices should contact Jen Mucciarone.
