Week One (Spring Semester)
Welcome back from Winter Break! I hope you have taken the time to celebrate with those that you love and to replenish your spirit. I can not wait to see all of you back on campus!
The first day of school is Tuesday, January 11th, and we have a special bell schedule. With the new more transmissible Omicron variant of Covid-19, we have taken additional measures including a baseline test to enter campus and you must have a negative Covid-19 test uploaded to Daily Pass by January 11th. If you have tested positive during the week of January 3rd, please stay home and call Community Engagement for further directions at 213-725-5637.
Important news, announcements and opportunities are below.
Sincerely,
