The COVID-19 Response Team will work on a variety of efforts across campus to keep Boxers safe, strong, and healthy. The program is designed for flexibility and will evolve with the changing needs of our campus community. Some of the anticipated areas of work that students will do include:

  • Public Health

  • Communications
    • maintaining and updating signage, information liaisons, creative student outreach
  • Tech Support

  • Boxer Spirit
    • peer-to-peer support, collective stress reduction, reinforcing ethics of care and community

Students on the COVID-19 Response Team will get special training, team support, and other perks. Students may also take an optional class in conjunction with your duties on the COVID-19 Response Team to earn credit and fulfill the Civic Engagement (CE) requirement. Team members will gain practical skills, learn more about the coronavirus pandemic, and contribute to community health and resiliency.
