Dear University of Vermont Faculty and Staff: The university is continuing an aggressive and comprehensive set of measures aimed at maintaining the safety and health of our campus and local communities this spring. Another way we can reduce the risk of Coronavirus is to avoid exposure to visitors who are not practicing our health and safety requirements or are not participating in our rigorous testing protocols.
If your unit or department received approval for visitors in the Fall 2020 semester, you need to request a new approval as outlined in this guidance document. Approvals from the previous semester do not automatically apply to the Spring 2021 semester. The one exception is for research participants. If they were already approved in a laboratory’s approved resumption plan, they do not need re-approval. All others do require reapproval.
