Moving Forward – Sheridan College’s Response to COVID-19

Sheridan College (SC) has and will continue to regularly review all safety guidelines and make appropriate changes based on the best interest of students, employees, and visitors.

Please note that the most recent updates can be found at www.sheridan.edu/updates. All students, employees, and visitors to any SC location will be expected to follow all current health and safety-related guidelines.

General Guidelines

All college-sanctioned activities have returned to pre-COVID-governed levels. This means all in-person classes remain at full-capacity, on-campus housing remains at regular occupancy, and dining and common areas are available at full-capacity.

Health and Safety Protocols

SC will continue to monitor matters of public safety and recommend continuation of best practices, including:

• Frequent handwashing,
• Keeping living and learning spaces clean (wipes will remain available in all highly utilized spaces),
• Utilization of vaccinations, and
• Staying home if feeling ill.
  • Requirements when an individual has symptoms of illness.
    • COVID: Quarantine is still recommended whenever individuals display symptoms of illness. Following CDC guidelines, individuals have the option for some to only isolate or quarantine for five days rather than the full ten days. This includes wearing a tight-fitting mask while in public on days 6-10. For more information, go to www.cdc.gov.
    • Self-screening is required. If a student, employee, or visitor has recently had direct contact with a person with a pending or confirmed case of COVID-19 or other communicable disease, and is feeling ill or experiencing any symptoms, they should stay home. Students should contact the Student Affairs Office at (307) 675-0123 and employees should contact the Human Resources Office at (307) 675-0571 for guidance regarding their specific situation.
• Masks / face coverings are welcome, but optional.
  • There may continue to be additional safety-related requirements in certain academic disciplines, such as dental hygiene or nursing.
• Public Safety Announcements will be shared when/if changes warrant a message and will be communicated by email.
