Dear Colleagues,
For those returning from Winter Break, welcome back to the Hill! I hope you found ample opportunities to spend time with loved ones and are ready to begin another semester at WKU.
As we begin a new academic term, reminders of the storms that affected our community at the close of the fall semester remain all around us. Thank you for your tireless efforts and selfless acts during the past five weeks to help our community heal. While we know recovery remains ongoing across our city and will continue for some time, I remain confident that Bowling Green will rebuild stronger than ever before, and I appreciate our Hilltoppers who continue to engage in this important work.
While today we welcome our students back to the Hill and return to our core mission of education and preparation, COVID-19 presents ongoing challenges that we must continue to navigate. The precautions that we employed during the last two years helped to keep our campus community safe, and the WKU COVID-19 Task Force’s protocols for the spring 2022 semester will continue to help protect the health of our WKU Family. I encourage you to review and bookmark our Healthy on the Hill guidelines, which include important procedures on testing, reporting, masking, isolating, quarantining and more. If you have questions or need clarification, please call the WKU COVID Assistance Line at 270-745-2019.
