There are no classes Monday, September 5, in observance of the federal Labor Day holiday.

The fall semester test of AlertUR will be on Thursday, September 8, at 6 p.m. EDT. AlertUR is the emergency notification system for the University, including the Medical Center. In the event of an emergency, alerts are sent by voice, text, and email message. The purpose of the twice-a-year test is to activate the AlertUR system and check that you can be reached immediately. Students are automatically enrolled via their Rochester email but are encouraged to add a cell phone number to receive emergency calls and texts. Before the test, be sure to review your contact information online. Sign in with your NetID and password to verify the fastest method for reaching you. The September 8 test will not disrupt scheduled activities. Find more information on AlertUR here.

If you are a member of a student organization that may travel for competitions and activities, complete the Individual Travel Waiver on CCC. The waiver is necessary for any travel beyond the campus area. If you have questions or experience trouble accessing the form, contact WCSA@rochester.edu.

The University’s COVID-19 tier level has been changed to low. Face masks are now optional for all students, faculty, staff, and visitors indoors. The current tier is posted on the COVID-19 Resource Center and is included daily at the end of @Rochester.
