Daily Symptom Survey

Keeping our community safe and healthy will require patience, consideration and empathy. We know Graduate School of Management community members are up for the challenge. Welcome to a new academic year.

FAll 2020 Instruction – September 15, 2020

Fall instruction is scheduled to be in-person and remote. If allowed by campus, county and state guidelines, we will have in-person classes. Currently, all guidelines prohibit in-person instruction due to the county being in a Widespread tier according to the state restrictions on reopening non-essential indoor business operations. The GSM is operating at a Red Status: Suspended Operations due to this restrictions. We will provide updates weekly.

While on campus, we expect you to follow these guidelines:

• Wear a face covering at all times.

Faculty and staff have access to Bishop Ranch. The building will be closed to the public and students during this time until further notice.

Restrooms

Bishop Ranch restrooms are available for use. Please be considerate. Wash your hands thoroughly. Try to avoid using handles in the restroom spaces. The restrooms will be disinfected and cleaned frequently.

Shared Spaces

Please do not congregate in the interior corridors. You will see that casual seating throughout the building has been taped off. All of these barriers are there to keep our community safe and healthy. Please do not ignore or tamper with them.

We encourage you to take conversations outside the building. Fresh air and additional space for social distancing create a safer environment for discussion.
