COVID-19 Response Team
While there has been an extraordinary amount of work done to prepare for the fall semester, we know more questions and challenges will emerge. College/Unit specific Response Teams have been established to assist faculty and staff with issues, for example, the need for additional classroom signage or more face coverings, or questions about the process if a positive COVID-19 case is reported in a class or department.
An overall University Response Team has also been created to coordinate university-wide actions.
Faculty and staff may call the Response Team central number to request assistance, report a problem, or share an idea of a creative, innovative approach to a recent challenge. The Response Teams will coordinate closely with the Emergency Operations Center and Fall Planning Executive Committee and supplement the existing response structures of Facilities Planning and Management, Department of Public Safety, Information Technology Services, and other service units.
