What will fall look like at CF?
The college is planning for normal operations during fall semester. A majority of scheduled classes will include face-to-face instruction, traditional lecture, lab and hybrid modalities. In all of our service areas, students will be able to receive services face to face and in other modalities. We will continue to monitor and re-evaluate social distancing requirements. Enhanced cleaning protocols will continue.
Do we still need to maintain social distance?
Yes. In every scenario where it is possible to maintain six feet of distance, we should adhere to this current CDC recommendation.
Do I still need to report if I acquire COVID-19?
Yes. The college is still required to report all employee and student cases of COVID-19 to the local health department and take measures to prevent further transmission of the virus on campus. Employees and students are required to notify the college immediately if they are identified as positive for COVID-19. Students should contact Registrar Alton Austin at Austina@cf.edu or 352-854-2322, ext. 1751. Employees should contact Director of Human Resources Jenny Klepfer at Klepferj@cf.edu or 352-854-2322, ext. 1291. Full information is available in our Temporary COVID-19 Procedure.
Can student clubs and academic organizations meet on campus?
Yes, as long as occupancy and social distancing guidelines are maintained. All on-campus gatherings must be approved in advance by club advisors.
Can department meetings and gatherings be held face-to-face?
Yes. If distancing guidelines are maintained, in-person meetings and gatherings may resume. Many meetings may continue to occur on ZOOM or teleconferencing platforms for increased safety and convenience.
When will college travel resume?
College travel for faculty, staff and students may resume on July 1 as funds are available.
Can employees continue to work remotely now that all employees have returned to on-campus work schedules?
No. The current Temporary Telecommuting Procedure and Temporary Inability to Return to Work Procedure expired effective May 31. Employees who may have limitations due to a medical condition that qualifies under the Americans with Disabilities Act should contact Human Resources for accommodations as allowed by college policy.
