Potsdam Campus Community,
The University Dashboard is up to date this evening on the number of tests conducted on campus and inclusive of those members of our community who have tested positive, and those who have completed their isolations. Comprehensive information about our on-campus testing and positive cases are on a NYS Website and offer a way to look at other institutions as more peers start to also open for in person classes.
While five people came off isolation today, three community members who live off campus and who were in quarantine reported they received positive test results.
- To respect the privacy of the individual, they will remain anonymous.
- We wish them good health.
Please keep completing the daily screening tool in your routine. If you have any questions about this communication, please contact clarksonhr@clarkson.edu and/or me.
Thank you for doing your part in our great Clarkson community.
