COVID-19 symptom screening update

The College has been experiencing problems with the daily COVID-19 symptom screening email reminder going to current students. In the event that you don't receive a reminder, students should still complete the screening daily before noon by going to the MyHealth portal. Complete the symptom screening by clicking the blue "Complete Survey" button. Call Student Health Service if you answer "yes" to any questions.
