Provost Britz reported that vaccinations have begun on campus and a registration system will be made available for faculty, academic staff and others on campus who are eligible to receive a vaccine. The goal is to vaccinate all faculty and academic staff by the end of the semester depending on the number of vaccines received through Aurora. Vaccinations will be offered to eligible community members when the vaccine allowance makes that possible. Campus is close to finalizing fees for the fall semester. Priorities based on the 2030 plan are being determined by Academic Affairs. The potentially permanent impact of tenure-clock extensions on faculty will need to be considered going forward.
