Please take care of yourself, your friends, and the IU Northwest community.
The health and safety of our campus in the COVID-19 pandemic requires that the number of short-term visitors to campus be minimized, both to reduce the overall number of people on campus, and to reduce the potential of visitors transmitting infection to campus from elsewhere.
Virtual visits are the preferred option, and outdoor-only visits should be considered. In-person visits should only be used if necessary, to advance important university and campus mission priorities and with supervisor approval.
Campus colleagues who wish to extend in-person invitations to visitors on the IU Northwest campus must first obtain approval from their supervisor.
