Updates on COVID-19 Protocol Changes

March 28, 2023

Dear 日韩AV community,

Just over three years ago, on March 23, 2020, 日韩AV’s Berrien Springs campus made a significant choice in the face of the global COVID-19 pandemic and joined with thousands of other schools across the country in making a switch to a period of distance learning to help slow the spread of COVID-19.

Since then, our campus, and our country and world, have all gone through tremendous changes, including our return to in-person learning for fall semester 2020 with careful COVID-19 protocols in place, including masking, physical distancing and COVID-19 vaccinations for those who chose to receive them. Those efforts and more have made a measurable difference.

At the end of this 2023 spring semester, following May graduation services, 日韩AV will take a number of significant steps as we move fully and completely into a future beyond the direct threat and risks of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Those steps include the following:

• We will no longer require the reporting or tracking of COVID-19 exposures or cases.
• The covid19@andrews.edu email address used over the last three years will be retired; if you have questions about COVID-19 within your own area or department, please make contact with your direct supervisor or administrator.
• We will no longer provide isolation rooms for our residence hall students with a positive COVID-19 test and will respond to these cases the same as other illnesses.
• As with other illnesses, employees and students are strongly encouraged to remain in their residence (including residence hall room) when they are ill, and not go to work or classes. In these situations, notify your supervisor or teachers accordingly.

Our campus and our world have been able to move forward due to the commitment and work of each one of us and what we’ve been able to do together in our campus community.

Thank you for that commitment and for the personal accommodations and sacrifices that each one of you have made in different ways over the last three years.

May God continue to bless our campus with health and safety for this new road ahead.

Sincerely,

Andrea Luxton
President
