Dear Parents and Families,
As you may have heard, along with the trend in the region, state and nation, COVID-19 cases are increasing on our campus. These increases among students -- both on and off campus -- have led to the need to take further steps to protect the health and safety of the campus community.
Today, the Washtenaw County Health Department, in collaboration with the university, issued a 14-day Stay in Place for our undergraduate students. Details about the county Stay in Place Order and changes to some of our undergraduate course formats are outlined in this message from our President Mark S. Schlissel, Provost Susan M. Collins and me. In addition, to share further details and address questions, we are moving up the regular Campus COVID-19 Weekly Briefing from Friday to this evening at 5 p.m. The briefing will be hosted by President Schlissel, Provost Susan M. Collins, and myself.
The briefing will be recorded and posted on the Maize & Blueprint as well as the President’s website for you to view at your convenience.
Thank you for everyone’s efforts, as well as the thoughts and concerns that have been shared, during this difficult, unprecedented time.
Dr. Martino Harmon, Vice President for Student Life
