Wear a Mask to Protect Yourself and Others.
In the SWC, you are required to wear a mask when you are feeling unwell.
If you require a doctor's note or documentation of illness for academic reasons, complete the Illness Self-Declaration form. Medical documentation is not required when you miss a final exam due to illness. Please follow the faculty-specific petition guidelines on the Deferred Exams page that include making a personal attestation of your illness.
Routine Immunizations on Campus
Vaccination is an important part of staying healthy. The SWC can help you make sure you have completed your routine immunization schedule. If you are not fully immunized, or if you're not sure, drop by or give us a call.
Measles is a highly contagious respiratory virus. Making sure you have two doses of the MMR vaccine is the best way to protect yourself. Contact us if you think you might not be fully vaccinated against the measles and read more about the virus here.
