Controlling COVID-19 on Campus

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – It is imperative that our entire campus community acts accordingly to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19. To help do that, the University of Arkansas Global Campus and U of A Human Resources created a helpful video as a reminder of the campuswide strategies that are in place.

These strategies are in place to protect each individual and those around you. The top priority is to keep campus safe and it will take all of us working together to help reduce the spread of COVID-19.

Earlier this summer, the U of A released a "Retun to Campus" plan that was built around the latest guidance from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as the Arkansas Department of Health.

Campuswide Strategies

  • Wash your hands often
  • Always wear a cloth face covering
  • Maintain physical distancing
  • Stay home and monitor your health if you have symptoms

This video was created to serve as a reminder to everyone in the university community of the actions we can each take to ensure the  health and safety of our campus.
