Dear staff and faculty,Ìý

As many of you are returning to work from winter break, I want to provide a short COVID-19 update for spring 2022. My regularly scheduled monthly COVID-19 message will go out next week.Ìý

Yesterday, Provost Prakash sent a communication to all faculty regarding the option to teach remotely for the first two weeks of spring 2022 classes. Given the weather conditions, delays in travel and persistence of COVID-19 cases, faculty will have the choice to teach remotely or in person until Jan. 21. Later today, a message will be sent out to students, asking them to work with their instructors to determine whether or not their face-to-face course will be modified for the first two weeks of the spring semester.Ìý

For ²ÝÁñÉçÇø staff, please work with your supervisors regarding any needs to work remotely over the next week or two.Ìý

²ÝÁñÉçÇø will host additional drop-in flu and COVID-19 vaccine clinics Jan. 11-12 from noon-8 p.m. at the Patty Center. You can also get tested in Fairbanks on the Troth Yeddha’ Campus. The Beacon testing site is located in the Nenana parking lot and is open Monday-Saturday, 9:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m., with extended hours until 8 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday. Let’s continue to work together to keep Nanook Nation healthy.Ìý

Thanks for choosing ²ÝÁñÉçÇø.

— Dan White, chancellor
