[Wsssc] COVID mandate "blanket" policies/procedures

[Blakeney, Erin]

Cascadia is requiring the same.
All students (online or in person) need to submit their vaccine status or request a religious/medical exemption.  The only students who have been allowed to opt out currently are those International students who are living in their home country for the quarter.  When they arrive, they will need to submit their status/exemption request.
Thanks!
Erin

Hi All,

At Bellevue College we have adopted an "all" or aka "blanket" approach to the COVID mandate regarding having all students complete the attestation form regardless of course modalities. Long story short, if a student is fully online we are still requiring them to submit the attestation form and select from either COVID vaccination confirmation, medical or religious exemptions. We considered this at length on our executive team for the College. Due to our new reality that we are moving into an education era where on ground, hybrid and online that are very fluid.  Students rarely just select one of these anymore.

So question, are any of the CTC's using the same approach? Input?

Saludos and happy Monday!


Dr. B
