This message covers


As we enter the final weeks of the semester, we can celebrate important signs of progress in the fight against COVID-19:





While being fully vaccinated opens up more safe activities, until more of our campus community has been fully vaccinated, it’s important for everyone – including those who are fully vaccinated – to continue taking precautions, such as wearing face coverings and practicing physical distancing.


This is especially important as we are beginning to see a rise in cases on and off campus and highly contagious variants of COVID-19 continue to spread both nationally and within Wisconsin.


Vaccine eligibility expands

This week, everyone who lives, works or studies in Wisconsin and is at least 16 years old is eligible to make an appointment for COVID-19 vaccination.


We strongly encourage you to seek COVID-19 vaccination. This not only protects you, it also protects those around you, including people at risk of severe illness or death. Vaccination is free to anyone living in the United States, regardless of their immigration or health status.


How to make a vaccination appointment

We encourage you to seek vaccines anywhere they are offered, including pharmacies and health care providers throughout the state. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention offers a vaccine search tool.
