Faculty and Staff

It is critically important that all students, faculty and staff monitor for and report any COVID-19-related symptoms to the Protect Purdue Health Center by calling 765-496-INFO (4636) or toll-free at 833-571-1043.

What you need to know now:

• Remote work guidance and best practices + other remote work resources.
• PassProof and Healow tools are rolling out for students and employees to help make the COVID-19 testing and, when needed, quarantine and isolation processes smoother during the spring semester. 
• Surveillance testing is underway for the spring semester.
• Spring 2021 travel, events and visitor guidance is now in place.
• Information and resources for anyone in isolation or quarantine are available from the Protect Purdue Health Center.
• Anyone entering a campus building must correctly wear a face mask in all hallways, public spaces and common areas as well as anytime social distancing of 6 feet is not possible.  Guidance on the use of face shields is also available.
• Guidelines for eating and drinking on campus are in place.
• Those who work in research labs should continue to follow direction provided by the executive vice president for research and partnerships.
• Watch: Recordings of the provost’s Protect Purdue Conversations.
• Even the most carefully laid out plans have to be resilient. We know that we do not know everything about the COVID-19 virus, and we all must be ready to adapt and change as we learn more. This could include an interruption that requires a period of remote learning with little advanced notice.
• Concerned about a student? Contact the Office of the Dean of Students.
