July 23, 2021

Dear select students, faculty, and staff,

COVID-19 surveillance testing appointments are now available for next week, the week of July 26. Two testing dates (Monday 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and Thursday 12 p.m. to 2 p.m.) are available. Sign up below.

Individuals who have not yet submitted records of full vaccination against COVID-19 to HR (faculty/staff) or the HCC (students) are required to test once during the weeks in which you will be on campus. If you have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19, you may submit your records to be removed from the testing pool. If you will not be accessing campus this week, please disregard this email.

Sign up nowTesting takes place from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the student union. At your selected testing time, please enter the student union on the west side of the building, through the northwest entrance doors off the Gray Campus Center patio. You will exit the student union through the east doors to ensure a one-way flow of traffic.

Testing appointments will not carry over from week to week; instead, a new sign-up sheet will be shared by email no later than the Friday before the week in question.

Surveillance testing results are usually back within 36–48 hours. Participants can view and print their results by accessing the lab’s portal.

For more details about the surveillance testing plan for this semester, please visit our COVID-19 testing web page. If you have any questions about this process, please contact the COVID-19 Risk Assessment Group at coronavirusquestions@reed.edu.
