Planning for Fall 2020 is underway! We’re excited to share our a summary of our Return to Campus Plan, which outlines health and safety measures, community expectations, and more. For more details, see our comprehensive Return to Campus Plan. Our Resumption of In-Person Instruction Plan outlines additional information about fall planning for the classroom.
As of July 9, 2020, we have one student living on campus who has tested positive for COVID-19. This student has been quarantined for several days and is now in isolation. Appropriate contact tracing is being conducted in collaboration with Marion County as needed, and Corban University is following all sanitation, isolation, and contact tracing guidelines as outlined in our Communicable Disease Plan. People who have been in this person’s vicinity will receive a call from Marion County Health, and will be given clear instructions for self-quarantine. Otherwise, we ask you to help us maintain the privacy and anonymity of this student. Thank you for helping to minimize risk on Corban’s campus!
