September COVID-19 update

Posted: September 21, 2021


Hello all,

Welcome to week three of the fall semester of 2021! I hope everyone is easing into the fall routine and staying focused on your efforts to remain healthy, both mentally and physically, during this continuing pandemic. Time for a quick COVID-19 update.

Survey results:

The results from a recent NWC employee survey about COVID-19 operational preferences are as follows:

* The adjunct faculty email list contains 118 people, but only about 50-60 teach each semester, so the response rate of Faculty and staff teaching or working at NWC this semester is likely closer to 63%.

Results from the same NWC Student survey given:

So, 2 out of 3 students and almost 3 out of 4 faculty/staff prefer a rolling mask mandate.
4 out of 10 students and over 7 out of 10 faculty/staff are vaccinated.

What that means for us:

Important links:

As always, please stay tuned for potential changes to our operational plans as cases of COVID-19 fluctuate across our community. Know that there may be a return to more restrictive practices if mandated by the State of Wyoming, Park County Public Health, or Northwest College administration due to serious health concerns. 

 Feel free to contact me directly with any questions/concerns.

 Best regards,

Lisa
