Health Safety Measures
Disposable face coverings and hand sanitizer will be available during the Reception. If you are planning to attend the Reception, please review and follow these health protocols:
If you become symptomatic for COVID-19, please get tested and learn the result before attending the Reception. Symptoms of COVID-19 often resemble cold, flu or allergies; you may unknowingly spread COVID-19 to others if you assume your symptoms are due to another cause.
If you test positive for COVID-19, five or fewer days before the Reception, please do not attend. We know this would be a disappointing situation. We greatly appreciate your responsibility in protecting others from COVID-19 by not attending commencement if you are infectious.
If you test positive for COVID-19 between 6 and 10 days before the Reception, you may attend if any symptoms are improved, but must wear a face covering at all times.
More information about COVID-19 diagnosis and isolation is available on the UNL COVID-19 website.
**Face coverings are a helpful tool for reducing the spread of any illness, including COVID-19.
