Guiding Principles
Skidmore College’s spring 2021 return to campus planning efforts are guided by two key principles:
- Protecting the health and safety of our community of students, faculty and staff, and the greater Saratoga Springs community, and
- Providing access to a residential, excellent liberal arts education.
We are committed to doing all we can to bring all or nearly all of the Skidmore student body back to campus and the Saratoga Springs vicinity in the spring, in accordance with all health and safety guidelines. The residential learning experience is an important aspect of a Skidmore education, and we will continue to provide our students with the highest quality educational opportunities and experiences.
