What steps is Cleary taking to create a safe campus environment?

Maintaining the health and safety of our campus community is a shared responsibility of all members of our community. Cleary will continue to monitor state orders and recommendations from public health officials and agencies, and we will update health and safety policies and procedures as the situation evolves.

We are implementing numerous policies and protocols to keep our community safe, including the following:

  • Monitoring CDC, state of Michigan, and Livingston County health mandates
  • Requiring face coverings (reusable cloth face masks will be provided to all employees and students and must be worn fully, covering nose and mouth)
  • Temperature checks and conditional testing
  • Required social distancing policies
  • Provision of hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes
  • Reduced capacity in classrooms and meeting spaces
  • Where necessary, modified furniture arrangements, installation of plexiglass, etc.
  • Business travel restrictions for faculty and staff
  • Expectation to stay home if sick and continued extension of sick leave for COVID-19 or influenza-like symptoms
  • Mandatory COVID-19 symptom and diagnosis self-monitoring, reporting and subsequent isolation
  • Limited in-person events
  • Off-campus guests will be greatly limited
  • Enhanced cleaning protocols for common spaces and offices consistent with CDC guidelines
  • Reduced residential housing occupancy
  • Modified dining services
  • Course-integrated training on COVID-19 facts and preventative practices
  • Limitations on in- and outflow from campus buildings
