As more of us have begun to return to campus today, here are just a few reminders to help us all thrive this summer and fall … Stronger Together.
Reminder #1: ICE CREAMJoin us for a free Ice Cream Social tomorrow – Wednesday, July 7, 12-2 pm – outside the Stony Brook Union (rain location: Student Union lobby). Student Affairs will also be hosting an Open House event called Stony Brook Union: Yesterday and Today – with tours every 20 minutes highlighting the new, and improved, Union and where to find all the services you need.
Reminder #2: Submit Your Full Vaccine Status for Relaxed COVID ProtocolsOn June 23, we shared a Coming Back Safe and Strong Update highlighting new COVID protocols from the Governor’s Office of Employee Relations (GOER), including more relaxed guidance for fully vaccinated individuals, including no need to physically distance, wear a mask, test weekly or self-screen daily in non-healthcare settings. If you haven’t yet, you can submit your full vaccination status simply and directly on your personal SOLAR account.Click here for instructions.
Reminder #3: Affirm That You’ve Read and Will Follow GOER GuidanceBy this Friday, July 9 (or within three business days of returning to campus for remote workers), New York State requires that all State employees affirm they have read and understand their obligation to follow GOER’s revised guidance and its provisions. It’s easy and can be accomplished right on SOLAR. Find detailed instructions here:Revised Workplace Guidance – Instructions.
