Self-Quarantine: An individual who has been exposed to COVID-19 will stay at home or in their residence hall room while separating themselves from others and monitoring health. They will be contacted daily to assess symptoms and health status. Individuals will remain in self-quarantine for a minimum of 14 days from the point of exposure (incubation period is three to 14 days) unless they are excused by the College’s contact tracers.
Campus Infection Rate (percent of total campus currently testing positive): 0.00%
Keeping Everyone #HealthyAtNIACC
We continue to work on strategies and resources to ensure that our students, faculty, and staff remain safe and healthy and we can provide the college experience that our students expect and deserve. This plan will be updated as the need arises.
If you test positive for Covid-19, or come in contact with someone who has been confirmed positive, please send an email to CovidHR@niacc.edu and let us know. Your information will remain confidential but it will help us monitor the situation on campus.
Here’s What You Can Do:
Everyone needs to do their part to protect themselves and the NIACC community which includes:
- Wear a face covering – whenever you are inside a building or in close proximity to others
- Maintain a safe social distance – at least 6 feet
- Wash or sanitize hands often – there are many sanitizing stations around campus
- Stay home when ill – if you don’t feel well stay and alert your instructor
- If you test positive for Covid-19, or come in contact with someone who has been confirmed positive, please send an email to CovidHR@niacc.edu and let us know. Your information will remain confidential but it will help us monitor the situation on campus.
- Complete the self-assessment found on TrojanHome whenever your health situation changes
Things to Know While on Campus
Face coverings should be worn in all indoor spaces on campus-hallways, classrooms, restrooms, Rec Center, and the Activity Center. The only time face coverings should be removed on campus is when someone is eating at one of the individual tables in the Activity Center or while walking outside further than six feet away from the closest person.
If you forget to bring a mask to campus, a limited number of masks will be available at these locations:
- Student Learning Center (Beem)
- Health Division office and Pappajohn Center (McAllister)
- BookZone (Activity Center)
- HR office (Administration building)
- Rec Center office
All classrooms have been arranged so that students have at least 6 feet between themselves and the instructor. If students must be closer than six feet at any time, they should be wearing both a face covering and goggles with a maximum exposure under six feet of 15 minutes.
Attendance Statement:
The College expects all students to attend all classes in which they are enrolled; however, if students must be absent, they should make arrangements in advance of the absence with their instructors. Students absent because they are official college representatives or attending an official college event must make advance arrangements with the instructor to complete all work missed before the absence. Attendance will be taken in two ways this semester: attending and participating in class meetings and the completion of online material and assignments. Students testing for or quarantined due to COVID-19 are expected to communicate with their instructors to develop course completion plans.
Institutional Statement:
Because of the unknown situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, NIACC reserves the right to transition any individual course, academic semester, portion of a course, or portion of an academic semester to an alternative mode of delivery including virtual delivery (synchronous or asynchronous), hybrid, or online.
