From president_office at plattsburgh.edu Mon Aug 2 11:30:00 2021 From: president_office at plattsburgh.edu (Office of the President) Date: Mon, 2 Aug 2021 07:30:00 -0400 Subject: [Important Information for Students] Fall 2021 Restart and Guidance Message-ID: Dear Campus Community, Today we posted the college's *Fall 2021 Restart Plan and Guidance* , the framework that will govern our return to campus and start of classes beginning next month. The restart plan was developed by working groups of campus leaders. It has been reviewed by SUNY, the Clinton County Health Department and various stakeholders across campus. Its overarching purpose is to ensure we operate with a clear focus on the health and safety of each of us and the wider Plattsburgh community. This has been my priority since the onset of the pandemic in March 2020. Much has changed over the summer due to the evolving nature of COVID and the growing prevalence of variants of concern. We are planning accordingly and putting requirements into place that follow the best direction available, understanding some aspects may change as we proceed this fall. Though I encourage you to read the plan online, I want to point out three key elements: - *Vaccine requirements. *Vaccinations are required for students participating in certain portions of campus life due to the heightened health and safety considerations in these areas. This includes those living in on-campus housing and those participating in collegiate, club, and intramural sports. Students are afforded exemptions for both medical and religious purposes, as well as temporary exemptions while completing the full vaccination process. These are detailed in the restart plan. The requirement that all SUNY Plattsburgh students who access any campus facilities in person be fully vaccinated will take full effect when at least one COVID-19 vaccination receives full FDA approval, per New York State guidance. Prior to approval, students are strongly encouraged to be fully vaccinated for the health and safety of themselves and their communities. The benefits of vaccination and more are detailed online at *www.suny.edu/knowyourvax/* . - *Health Screening and Testing. *Although mandatory daily health screenings are no longer required for vaccinated individuals, all of us are reminded to check our health before entering campus buildings. Daily screening will continue for unvaccinated or partially vaccinated individuals through signage posted at the entrance of all campus buildings instructing individuals to not enter if they answer “yes” to any of the questions. Mandatory weekly surveillance pool testing will also continue for unvaccinated / partially vaccinated employees and students. - *Indoor masking. *Due to the increased prevalence of the new variants and recommendations in the most recent CDC guidance, as the semester begins the campus will return to requiring face coverings indoors. This will require everyone on campus to wear a mask while indoors regardless of vaccination status. This will be effective beginning Monday, Aug. 23 as campus density and semester operations gear up. It will remain in place through at least the first two weeks of classes (through Sunday, Sept. 12 for fully vaccinated individuals). During this time, the mask mandate will be evaluated based on the campus’ vaccination status, positivity rate and other factors. The status will be communicated to campus. Unvaccinated individuals will continue to be required to wear masks. As we have done, we will continue to regularly evaluate health and safety requirements, follow state and local Health Department directions and keep your well being at the center of our work.

If you receive a suspicious message, follow these steps: 1. *Do not reply*. If you have responded or are unsure what to do, contact the LITS Helpdesk . 2. *Mark the message as Spam.* These scams often take the form of targeted email or text messages designed to get victims to engage and establish a rapport. The messages will vary. Typically, they start out as basic greetings or promises of job opportunities. Example scam greetings are: 1. "Please see attachment for assistantships Position" 2. "Congratulations! You're Hired" 3. "Congratulations to you on your new job, I had to verify all the information you provided. I hope to have your 100% loyalty and co-operation." They might claim that you would be a "great fit" for their position and that they represent a real business with a good reputation. They then ask you to contact them for an interview via Google Hangouts or another video chat service. The messages progress to requests for money, data, or action from you, the intended victim. Their goal is to steal data, money, or both. *How to Protect Yourself from Employment Scams* 1. Be cautious about all communications you receive. Unless you’re absolutely sure about the source of a communication, do not respond to it. Delete it. You can also forward it for review by our information-security team at: phishing at plattsburgh.edu. 2. For the job offers, check the job posting. If a person claims to represent a reputable company, visit the official website and look for the job posting before agreeing to anything, especially to an interview. If you can’t find it, it’s probably a scam. 3. Be wary of unusual procedures. No real company would ask you to pay money to receive a job offer, nor would they send you a check before you’ve completed any work or overpay you for supplies and ask you to send back part of the money. 4. Watch out for generic job offers. Jobs that are very general are among the most likely to be scams. Another red flag would be the same job description posted for different companies on many websites. As always, should you have any questions about phishing scams or any other cyber-security issue, please feel free to contact the Helpdesk . --Library and Information Technology Services (LITS) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Effective Monday, Aug. 23, the campus will revert back to requiring face coverings while indoors for all individuals, regardless of vaccination status. Facilities has begun posting signage across the campus to reflect this change. Unvaccinated community members must also social distance both indoors and outdoors. This will be effective through at least Saturday, Sept. 11, the end of the second week of classes. While in place, this mandate will be evaluated for continuation based on the campus’ vaccination status, positivity rate and/or other factors related to external factors such as community spread. The status of the mandate will be communicated to campus. If we are successful in keeping our community safe from COVID-19 and prevalent variants, the college may eliminate restrictions for fully vaccinated individuals. Fully vaccinated is defined as two weeks after the second dose in a two-dose series, such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or two weeks after a single dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine. Self service cleaning supplies in red buckets and hand sanitizer will be in common areas such as lounges, lobbies, and other high traffic locations across campus. We ask that you return the cleaning supplies to their designated location after use. You can request the supplies be replenished through submitting a work order through ReADY Request. As a reminder, all employees must affirm that they have read the Revised Guidance for State Agencies and Authorities During the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Attestation guidance in its entirety, understand its provisions, and will adhere to its requirements. State employees must return this signed attestation to Human Resource Services, 912 Kehoe. All third party affiliates should return them to their appropriate Human Resources office.

As president over the past 18 months, I have observed and learned that this college has resiliency, it has hope, it has tenacity and it has kindness. There is a powerful can-do spirit that pervades this campus. As a community, we have helped one another through. We have supported one another as the ultimate act of demonstrating community. This support is still necessary, which is why we will remain focused on this throughout the semester and year ahead. It is our interdependence that leads to so much success among our students, faculty and staff. For example, our designation by the Association of American Colleges and Universities as a Truth, Racial Healing & Transformation campus center has moved from paper to action. We intend for our campus to be an active place for conversation that can dismantle historical racial narratives and broaden our recruitment and retention of a racially diverse student body, faculty and staff. This will encompass curriculum and the full campus and wider communities. We have the support of SUNY system administration in this as we become the first college to advance on this designation. As we begin classes Monday, please remember the indoor masking requirement applies to all campus buildings regardless of vaccination status. All students will also participate in pool testing the first week of classes. These steps are taken as we continue our focus on the health and safety of each of us. Whether you are just beginning or are continuing your life as a Cardinal, you can be proud. It is a community I have come to treasure and know you will as well. My best for a great semester.

These scams create serious risk of financial losses for both the college and individual members of our community. *Please remember: *Never share your personal information (such as cell phone numbers and non-campus email addresses) with *any* agents who contact you with such requests. If you know the person and are suspicious of an email request, call them for information. We know the scammers are using our campus directory to extract names of students to target. In many cases they try to trick the student into thinking it's coming from a legitimate Instructor on campus. In order to help protect the safety of our campus, we are making the following changes as of 4 p.m. today: 1)* Students are being removed from the main public-facing campus directory*. A separate directory has been created and put behind campus authentication, which can be used to search for current students, alumni, emeriti, and faculty/staff. You will find a new link on the main directory page labeled "Search for Students." It only allows authenticated users to see and search the directory. 2) *All EXTERNAL emails will now have [External] prepended in the subject line. *To assist students and faculty/staff in quickly identifying messages sent from non-campus sources (i.e., not from "@plattsburgh.edu"), we will prepend [External] in the subject line of ANY message from an external source. Thank you for your vigilance against scammers and helping everyone to stay safe. If you have questions, please email the Helpdesk at helpdesk at plattsburgh.edu or call 564-4433. --Library and Information Technology Services (LITS) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
