COVID-19 updates- Winter week two

From: Office of the Provost and Executive Vice President

Dear OSU Students,

Thank you for your steadiness and flexibility as we begin winter term navigating the continued impacts of the pandemic. We know the recent surge in the virus has been especially challenging, given how fast the Omicron variant is spreading and with isolation requirements that come with positive cases.

COVID-19 Updates: Boosters, isolation and other important information

From: Office of the Provost and Executive Vice President

Dear OSU Students,

I hope your winter term is off to a good start, despite the continued stress we all feel due to COVID-19. Vaccination, masking and other efforts are minimizing the extent to which Omicron leads to severe health outcomes, but the next several weeks will require a great deal of flexibility, patience and compassion.

The information below is intended to assist you in preparing and responding as we work together during this next COVID-19 surge.

In-Person instruction and support

From: Office of Academic Affairs

Dear students,

As winter term begins and COVID-19 case counts rise, we encourage you to remain focused, attend classes and keep your learning on track. We recognize your class attendance or in-person instruction could be temporarily impacted by the Omicron wave, but on-campus classes will continue to be held in person as much as feasible, and you should plan to attend in person.

In-person instruction continues for winter term; get tested and boosted before Jan. 3
