Dear OSU students,

As we settle into fall term, I write to share a few updates with you.

Dear OSU Students,

I am writing to provide attention to important updates to OSU’s COVID-19 safety policies. 

Physical Distancing Policy:

Statewide mandates on gatherings and social get togethers have also been updated by the governor and OSU has updated its policy to align and supplement these requirements.

As you get ready fall term, we want to be sure that you are technologically prepared for your class requirements.

Dear Students,

As you prepare to return to campus, make sure to pack your masks or face coverings. OSU has a face coverings policy for common indoor spaces and outdoor spaces where physical distancing is not possible. OSU also has a physical distancing policy to contribute to the safety of the university. Make sure to keep 6 feet between others to help support a safer and healthier community.

Dear OSU students,

We are finalizing our plans for delivering an engaging university experience for fall term. Even while this fall will be different due to the COVID-19 pandemic, you will benefit from exceptional instruction and world-class faculty. You also will have the opportunity to participate in cutting-edge research while interacting with fellow students no matter where you choose to live and learn. We will meet you where you are to achieve your academic goals.

OSU students,

The start of fall term within Oregon State University is just around the corner.

Dear Students,

A healthier and safer OSU depends on you. And OSU has guidance and resources to help inform you about staying healthy. Bookmark the COVID-19 Safety & Success for Students site, where you can find comprehensive information and a list of resources for fall term.

OSU students,

Join us today for an informative webinar on how the university’s fall plans for COVID-19 testing will benefit you.

Here’s a link to the webinar that will be held Wednesday, Sept. 16, from 4 to 5 p.m. No registration is required.

Dear Students,

OSU scheduled both in-person and remote classes to reduce the number of people on our campuses. We need each of you to contribute to building a safer and healthier university community by wearing face coverings in accordance with university policy and maintaining physical distancing requirements in hallways and honoring seating restrictions in classrooms.

Corvallis Campus

OSU faculty, staff and students,

I am writing to share COVID-19 testing results from the third day of students moving into our residential halls on our Corvallis and OSU-Cascades campuses.
