Throughout the pandemic, the health and well-being of our faculty, staff, and students has been our priority, and we remain committed to flexibility for faculty and staff faced with extraordinary circumstances. Everyone in supervisory roles should use discretion and flexibility during the coming months when determining employee schedules.

We continue to require that everyone who can work from home do so. Some employees may need to be on campus to deliver in-person services that cannot be provided virtually. We encourage supervisors to consider adjusted schedules whenever possible for employees who request them.
