Join UAA Chancellor Sandeen and cabinet for a virtual College During COVID faculty information session on Aug. 12.

UAA EHS and Facilities departments have been working to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 in our campus community. Great effort has been made to thoroughly clean and disinfect all touch-points in campus buildings. We are also providing community protective equipment, such as hand sanitizer at building entrances and supplies for disinfecting in classrooms, as well as ensuring all soap dispensers for handwashing are working and filled.

For the fall 2020 semester, access to UAA facilities is generally restricted, meaning keys and WOLFCards are required to access campus buildings. Students will have access to the buildings where essential services are located and they will have access to face-to-face classes. New and replacement WOLFcards are available from the University Center Cashiering Office or the UAA/APU Consortium Library.

College During COVID is a straightforward guide to UAA’s operations during the ongoing pandemic. This is a challenging time, but we are resilient. We adapt. Let’s all do our part to stop the spread of COVID-19. Access resources, FAQs and more at uaa.alaska.edu/covid19.

In an effort to keep everyone safe who’s working and attending classes on campus, UAA has a plan for reporting and tracking those employees and students who get positive results for their COVID-19 test. Our process begins when the person with the COVID-19 diagnosis uses our designated telephone and email for that reporting purpose. Please call (907) 205-6941 and email uaa_ehsrms@alaska.edu to start the process. Case management will be supported by the Environmental Health & Safety Department as well as public heath contact tracers.
