Campus Update 9.11.2020

Posted: Sep 11 2020
 
It has been a challenging week at °µÍøTV as we manage our first COVID-19 “cluster” event.  First, thank you all for your patience and cooperation as we work to get students through quarantines, deliver face to face and distance instruction, and keep everyone safe.  I want to offer a special shout to some folks who have went “above and beyond” this week for students:
  • Kit Hernandez and the Housing staff, who have put in countless hours moving students in and out of quarantine and generally making sure they are safe and settled.
  • Mary Bowkus and the Aladdin Food Service staff who, aside from serving students in the Teton Grill, have been feeding students while they are in on-campus quarantine.
  • Clay Sponable and Campus Services, including all our custodians and maintenance personnel, who have been working daily to clean and sanitize living and learning spaces.
  • The Nursing Faculty and Students, who faithfully volunteer every week to assist in the “hot zone” during COVID-19 testing.
As we approach the weekend, I encourage each of you to be aware of where you go and what you do.  The COVID-19 virus is insidious and strikes when we are off our guard, so continue to practice social distancing, wear a mask, wash your hands often, and stay away from large groups and gatherings.  We share responsibility for the well-being of each other, and each of us, by the choices we make, have a part to play in slowing the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
 
Remember, we will once again host a community testing event on the WSC campus Monday, September 14 from 4:00 – 6:00 PM.  Even if you have been previously tested, I encourage you to stop by and get tested again.
 
The time and effort you are investing in each other and in the college during a turbulent period at °µÍøTV truly humbles me. The Teton family is strong, and we will get through this together.
 
Be smart, be safe, and stay healthy!
 
Respectfully,
 
John Miller
President
