West Virginia University is encouraging faculty and staff to take part in additional free voluntary COVID-19 testing options next week prior to the Thanksgiving holiday.
Announcements
As we approach the holiday season and many people begin to plan for celebrations and related travel, WVU wants to remind faculty, staff and students to stay vigilant in protecting themselves and others from the potential spread of COVID-19.
Employees can schedule virtual counseling appointments through December with an experienced TIAA financial consultant. Virtual counseling eases registration and increases appointment availability.
The ITS Service Desk will close at 5 p.m. Monday and Tuesday (Nov. 23 and 24) and will remain closed Wednesday, Nov. 25 through Sunday, Nov. 29.
Despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions on global travel, WVU faculty members are continuing efforts to expand curriculum and learning opportunities abroad with the support of Virtual Exchange Faculty grants from the Office of Global Affairs.
