Swine Flu
Important Message From President Casey Crabill
The College has taken a number of steps to prevent the spread of the Swine Flu on campus. We have increased the number of hand sanitizers available and regularly clean and sanitize widely used surfaces and areas such as hand railings, door knobs and restrooms. In addition, sanitizing wipes are available in all classrooms for your use if you want to wipe down your desk or computer keyboard.
We ask that you do your part by following these simple precautions:
- Get vaccinated
- If you are sick, stay home. Don’t come to campus and spread your germs. Symptoms of the flu include a fever of over 100 degrees, a sore throat and cough. Follow your doctor’s orders on when it is safe to return to campus.
- Practice good hand hygiene by washing your hands with soap and water, especially after coughing or sneezing. Alcohol-based hand cleaners are also effective.
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your elbow or shoulder, not your hands.
- If you get the flu, make sure to call or e-mail your professors and advise them of your absence.
The administration, faculty and staff are committed to doing everything possible to keep our campus healthy and safe. If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions, please send me an e-mail or stop by my office.
