TC Campus Access Requirements Update
Dear Members of the TC Community,
All of us at Teachers College —students, faculty, staff, and affiliates—are committed to doing what we can to reduce and stop COVID-19 transmission within and around the College community.
As we continue to work to ensure the health and safety of the Teachers College community, we would like to make you aware of some changes to the TC Campus Access protocols that will go into effect at the start of campus activities on Wednesday, October 7th, 2020.
Campus Access Requirements:
- The Teachers College Community Health Compact will be added to the Daily Health Screening. The Compact is a one-time requirement to acknowledge that you agree to follow the proper health and safety protocols outlined in the Teachers College Health and Safety Guidelines for Campus and specific requirements on COVID-19 PCR test procedures and Health and Safety training.
- The Teachers College Daily Health Screening will be linked to the COVID-19 PCR test and the TC Health and Safety Training. Failure to complete any of the campus access requirements - Daily Health Screening and TC Compact, COVID-19 Test, and Health and Safety training - will result in a red screen followed by an email from Human Resources or Student Affairs with guidance on the next steps.
- TC students, faculty, staff, and affiliates must complete the TC Daily Health Screening and NOT the ReOpen CU app before each visit to the Teachers College campus to ensure that your ID card remains active and enables swipe access to campus buildings.
For questions or assistance with the Daily Health Screening, please submit a ticket to the TCIT Service Desk, email servicedesk@tc.columbia.edu or call 212-678-3300.
Thank you for playing an essential role in ensuring the health and safety of the Teachers College community. Please help us stop the spread by adhering to the CDC Guidelines on how to protect yourself and others.
