We, in CALS, hope that you were able to somehow enjoy Winter Break. Whether you spent it alone or with others, we hope that you were at least able to recharge before the start of this new semester. Please spend some time familiarizing yourself with the NEW COVID-19 campus safety plan for Spring 2021. We need everyone in our campus community to continue following health protocols: Wear a face covering, maintain physical distance, avoid gatherings with people you don’t live with, and wash your hands often. In addition, all students, staff and faculty who will be using campus facilities are required to use the Safer Badgers App (available for both Apple and Android users). It’s completely free and  will allow faculty, staff and students to find testing locations, schedule COVID-19 tests, obtain test results, and access additional health resources. One screen of the Safer Badgers app, called the Badger Badge, will serve as a virtual access pass for entry into campus workplaces and buildings where in-person classes and other in-person activities are being held. The Badger Badge screen will not show any private health information.
