The University of 成人影片 System policy states that vaccination requirements may only be made by exception and must be approved by the President at the request of the Chancellor.
I have received your requests for a vaccination requirement for the following:
FACULTY, STAFF AND STUDENTS IN SPRING 2022 HIGH CONTACT/HIGH DURATION LABORATORY CLASSES
These classes will be individually identified and approved by the Vice Chancellor for Rural, Community and Native Education for CRCD/CTC classes or by the Provost for all other classes.
Based on your request and President Pitney鈥檚 approval, I am herewith authorizing a vaccination requirement (with medical and non-medical-religious exemptions) for that purpose.
Please see the procedures laid out in the September 17, 2021 memo from Chief Human Resources Officer Bishko titled 鈥淕uidelines for Supervisors Regarding COVID-19 Vaccinations and Face Coverings鈥 (https://sites.google.com/alaska.edu/coronavirus/general-info/updates). The memo has links to exemption forms for employees. Student exemptions are issued by the Center for Student Rights and Responsibilities (non-medical), or the Student Health and Counseling Center (medical). The memo can be found at:
