Vex operations have been halted since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic when campus emptied as students, faculty and staff left to isolate last March.
For the first time since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Vern Express will return to service on campus this August, according to an email sent to the GW community on Thursday.
The Vex will resume “fully operational” service August 9th on a 30-minute schedule, and fully vaccinated passengers can ride without masks but must show their GWorld card while boarding, according to the email. Officials said Vex drivers will undergo campus coronavirus testing protocol, GW employees will install fiberglass barriers between drivers and riders and University employees will clean all shuttles after each shift and wipe high touch surfaces throughout the day as part of health precautions.

Imani Cheers, who will serve as the interim senior associate provost for undergraduate education, is the first Black woman to serve as SMPA’s associate director.
Provost Brian Blake announced Monday officials will appoint two professors to serve as interim vice provost for research and interim senior associate provost for undergraduate education, effective next month.
Blake told faculty in an email that Carla Berg, a professor of prevention and community health, will serve as the interim vice provost for research and Imani Cheers, the associate director of the School of Media and Public Affairs, will serve as the interim senior associate provost for undergraduate education, both starting June 1. The interim appointments come as steps in Blake’s restructuring of the provost’s office, which began last summer.
Dear Class of 2025: Congrats on your admission to GW – we’re sorry you have yet to see campus.
If you did not get a head start on campus tours before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, there are a few things to know about the University before sending in your initial deposit. For starters, come to GW if you don’t care much about sports. Steer clear of the University if you care more about your classes than your next internship. You’ll fit right in here if you love learning the ins and outs of a city and are involved in activism.

Before you throw away all of your food scraps, give composting a try.
Nearly 40 percent of all U.S. food supply is wasted, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. But if you could do anything to reduce that waste, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said it should be composting, along with four other efforts like feeding hungry people and animals.
