Dear students, faculty, and staff,
We are excited to welcome everyone back to campus for the second half of the fall 2021 semester next week! Below, we report to you two things you need to know today.- NO NEW COVID-19 CASES: We are pleased to report that we have identified no new confirmed COVID-19 cases at Reed this past week. We continue to report all associated COVID-19 cases online, found in the "Total Cases" section of the dashboard.
- POST BREAK TESTING: Next week, we invite and encourage everyone who traveled over fall break to stop in for COVID-19 surveillance testing. Testing will be available Tuesday, October 26 and Thursday, October 28 from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM in Greenwood. Prior to attending testing, please know how to access your Predictive Labs account at client.predictivelabs.com.
