Religious organizations should abide by NYS guidelines noted here: https://www.governor.ny.gov/sites/governor.ny.gov/files/atoms/files/ReligiousandFuneralServicesMasterGuidance.pdf. Clarkson University will not infringe upon a student’s right to attend or participate in religious observances but would ask that if a student finds the above guidelines, and/or the Clarkson Commitment, are not being followed, to either work to correct that with the organization or find an alternative means or location to worship.
Clarkson University clubs and organizations, religious-based or otherwise, are expected to follow all procedures for event/gathering restrictions as determined by the University. See the University’s Risk Alert System and Gathering Policies webpage for additional information. If you have specific questions or concerns, contact Dean of Students Jim Pittman at jpittman@clarkson.edu and/or Chief Inclusion Officer Dr. Jen Ball at jball@clarkson.edu.
