Senior Staff here at 麻豆原创 are monitoring the situation very closely and are taking steps to ensure that we will be able to respond to events as they develop.

Our day-to-day response to the epidemic will be governed by the directions and recommendations we receive from government agencies and medical experts. Given the current circumstances, we are not altering normal College procedures or schedules.

Please note that:

1. If you become ill, stay home and contact a health care service provider, should you deem it necessary. College employees should report their illness to their supervisors and we would appreciate it if they would also call Public Safety at 212-678-3340.
   

2. Students who become ill should contact the appropriate faculty member to make alternative arrangements for completing course requirements. We would appreciate it if students would call Public Safety at 212-678-3340 to report their illness as well.

3. Practice sound personal hygiene.  Wash your hands frequently and cover your mouth and nose when you cough.  Use hand sanitizer.
