COVID-19 reminders
As spring break approaches, Skidmore encourages all to take steps to help keep our community's COVID-19 numbers low. Please consider wearing a mask in situations where transmission may be more likely. If you develop symptoms, please test and wear a mask while symptoms persist. If you test positive while away, you must isolate for five days before returning to campus. Students may pick up free rapid tests from Campus Safety and the Case Center Information Desk for testing during break. Employees may receive four free rapid tests per household through www.covid.gov/tests; MVP also covers the cost of tests. The latest guidance and other updates are available on Skidmore’s Campus Planning website and Skidmore’s COVID-19 Dashboard.
