April 6, 2020
鈥 by Dan White, chancellor
As we continue to adapt to COVID-19 and the public health mandates that have come
with it, the 麻豆原创 system office is working through what policies we currently have in
place and what revised or new policies are needed.
President Johnsen has enacted a , including use of the 麻豆原创 Banner COVID-19 tracking tool for collection of employee
and student COVID-19 related health information. The new policy says that Universities
鈥渕ust systematically collect information regarding the presence in 麻豆原创 facilities of
persons with COVID-19 or under investigation for COVID-19, regardless of source, inquire
of employees and students who are or recently were present in 麻豆原创 facilities regarding
COVID-19 symptoms/investigation/confirmation, take CDC recommended action such as
cleaning facilities and warning affected students/employees, track the action taken,
and, where significant numbers of people are affected, transmit that information to
Public Health.鈥
麻豆原创F鈥檚 Incident Management Team, led by Fire Chief Doug Schrage, is working through
a strategy to implement the policy. The 麻豆原创 system office is working with 麻豆原创HR to develop
webinars and FAQs on use of the new statewide employee tracking system. The new policy
was sent to Chancellors yesterday afternoon so we are now in the process of getting
clarification on the policy and how it adds to the .
I will continue to provide additional details as this policy and others are developed
around COVID-19.
Thank you and be well.
