The White House and the U.S. Department of Education declared ³Ô¹Ï¹ÙÍø a COVID-19 College Challenge Champion.

The White House and the U.S. Department of Education invited colleges and universities across the country to join them in efforts to end the pandemic by signing up for the COVID-19 College Challenge.

³Ô¹Ï¹ÙÍø State has hosted five COVID-19 vaccination clinics since March, including three through the mobile clinic. The mobile clinic will be back on campus several more times throughout the summer.

On June11, the ³Ô¹Ï¹ÙÍø State Board of Trustees voted to require all students, faculty, and staff to be vaccinated, after at least one of the current emergency-use authorized vaccines receive full approval by the FDA.

³Ô¹Ï¹ÙÍø State plans to return all classrooms, labs, and research spaces to 100 percent, in person, capacity for the fall semester. In addition, housing and dining areas will return to full usage with the vaccine requirement in place.
