Introduction
Due to the ongoing and immediate concerns regarding COVID-19, it is imperative that we ALL (Students, Faculty and Staff) do our part, and that we do it correctly while remaining vigilant with our own personal health and safety.
With this, we are encouraging that EVERYONE who intends on either using a campus lab computer, bringing a personal computer to campus and or even utilizing office or classroom computers, to take their health into their own hands for the safety of everyone.
