Cumberland continues to closely monitor the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and strongly encourages all students, faculty, staff and visitors to get an authorized COVID-19 vaccination.
CU is planning a return to a fully on-campus learning model for the Fall 2021 semester, including:
- Resumption of in-person classes at or near capacity
- In-person meetings, events, gatherings and activities will resume
- Fully opened dining services, academic and campus resources
- A traditional fall academic calendar
The health and safety of our students, faculty, staff and community is our top priority. In order to facilitate a safe return to campus:
-
All students, faculty and staff are required to sign the updated social contract, which includes disclosing their COVID-19 status to the university.
-
-
Regardless of vaccination status, all individuals will be required to wear masks when indoors on campus unless in a residence hall room, a private vehicle, an enclosed office or other private space with no other individuals present.
-
Students, faculty and staff are expected to follow guidelines for their specific COVID-19 status (fully vaccinated or not fully vaccinated). Reporting or behaving falsely as fully vaccinated is subject to suspension/termination
-
Students, faculty and staff who experience symptoms of COVID-19 or have been exposed to COVID-19 are expected to report those to university health services (healthservices@cumberland.edu)
-
All are expected to act responsibly, reasonably and respectfully of others
