Dear members of the Laurier community,
We recognize the challenges that all members of the Wilfrid Laurier University community have faced over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic and with the uncertainty of the past few months. Our faculty, staff and students have continued to adapt to evolving circumstances as we adhere to public health guidelines. Thank you to all students, faculty and staff for your ongoing resiliency, hard work and dedication.
Many of you have shared how much you miss being on our campuses and that you are eager to return to campus as soon as it is safe to do so.
Protecting health and safety and creating as much stability as possible for students, faculty and staff, as well as the safety of the communities in which we operate, is of utmost importance and has been the foundation of our decision-making since the pandemic began.
COVID-19 will remain part of our lives for some time, and precautions will still be necessary. However, the news of the vaccines is encouraging. As the vaccine continues to roll out across the province, there is room for hope and optimism that our lives will start getting back to a place where we can be in person again.
We remain committed to providing our undergraduate and graduate students with the best educational experience possible, in a way that allows for campus connections, athletics and recreation, and opportunities to live and study, socialize and gain work experience on our campuses.
All of us at Laurier are looking forward to the day we welcome back our students, faculty and staff in person to our campuses. We will continue to share additional information as it becomes available in the coming months. In the meantime, look for updates about the fall term at wlu.ca/coronavirus.
Stay safe, stay connected and stay well.
Tony Vannelli, Provost and Vice-President: Academic
