Health Screening

If you have symptoms or believe you were exposed to COVID-19, please contact your primary health care provider or the IHA Health Center @ EMU at: 734-896-4110 for patient care management. You MUST also complete the COVID-19 Report Form (See emich.edu/emu-safe/safe-return-to-campus/students).

If you test positive for COVID-19, please complete the COVID-19 Report Form. The Assistant Vice President for Academic & Student Affairs will contact you for verification, support, and notify your instructors.

Physical Distancing

Physical distancing is one of the most effective strategies to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Whenever practical, all individuals on University grounds must maintain a physical distance of six feet or more from other individuals who are not part of their household.

Face coverings

Wearing a face covering is one of several essential actions that reduce the spread of COVID-19. Everyone on campus (e.g., students, faculty, staff, and visitors) are required to wear a face-covering that covers both the nose and mouth in or on all university buildings (including classrooms and labs) and grounds.

Hygiene

Hand hygiene practices, as well as appropriate cough etiquette, help reduce the spread of COVID-19. All individuals should regularly wash their hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. At a minimum, individuals should wash their hands before eating and after using the restroom, touching anything in a public area, or blowing their nose. Use hand sanitizer when needed (but not in place of handwashing when soap and water are available). Hand sanitizer stations are in all buildings.

Wellness & Community Responsibility

We expect every member of the campus community to follow these standards as part of our community commitment to safety. Students who do not comply with the University’s policy requiring face coverings and physical distancing are subject to the University’s Code of Community Responsibility. Questions regarding enforcement involving students should be directed to the Office of Wellness & Community Responsibility at emu_owcr@emich.edu or 734-487-2157.
