The good news is that 85.5% of faculty and staff are either partially or fully vaccinated, and 82.91% of students are either partially/fully vaccinated or have received an approved exemption. If you are not among the vaccinated, have not received a formal medical or religious exemption, or are not part of the WP Online program (which is more than just taking your courses online), you must take action now to get vaccinated and be able to study, teach, or work as a part of the William Paterson community this semester. Proof of vaccination must be uploaded to the WP website no later than 12 noon on Wednesday, August 18th.
We want you vaccinated and safe, and we want you here! You can get vaccinated at an on-campus clinic this Wednesday, Aug. 11th. Check your email for more details from the Counseling, Health and Wellness Center. You can also locate other vaccination sites here.
Thank you to everyone who has gotten vaccinated. To those who haven't, please do so now, and we can all look forward to a safe and productive semester.
