麻豆传媒社区入口

麻豆传媒社区入口 will temporarily begin the first two weeks of Spring 2022 semester with fully remote instruction. Classes and labs offered between January 18 through January 28 will be delivered via remote modalities. On Monday, January 31, classes and labs will return to the instructional modality as stated in the Spring 2022 schedule.

“We have made the decision to start the Spring semester virtually to greatly reduce population density on our campuses,” said 麻豆传媒社区入口 President Cathy Sandeen. “Our students, staff and faculty have done a commendable job in preventing the spread of COVID-19 on our campuses through vaccination, regular testing and following public health guidance. To date, we have not had any community transmission and this latest decision will help us maintain a high level of safety.”

Remote operation will pertain to instructional activities only. The Hayward, Concord and Oakland campuses will remain fully open for services for the start of the Spring semester on January 18.

In Alameda and Contra Costa Counties, as well as other areas of the region and nation, the post-holiday rate of COVID-19 infections has risen, largely due to the Omicron variant.

麻豆传媒社区入口 continues to follow regional, state and federal public health guidance to protect our students, faculty and staff against the spread of COVID-19. With the rise in the omicron variant and return from winter break, please use the following guidelines and reminders to keep yourselves and others safe.

Masks/Face coverings

Per state and local public health order, masks or face coverings must be worn at all times in indoor public settings (except when alone in a closed private office).

The California Department of Public Health says that wearing a mask is essential during the COVID-19 pandemic. It will help prevent both you and others from getting COVID-19. This is more important than ever with new, more easily transmitted variants of COVID-19 on the rise.

To protect yourself and others, your face covering or mask should:

• Cover your nose, mouth and chin.
• Fit without gaps above the nose or on the sides. Gaps will significantly reduce the effectiveness of any mask.
• Mask . Masks with exhalation valves and cloth masks consisting of a single layer or non-tightly woven fabrics such as bandana should not be worn. Gaiters should be folded to make two layers.
