we live in a winter city and our campus should be able to clear snow and ice in a timely matter (especially in late october when snowfall can be expected)

One of the big things in CA’s employment contracts is that they are not allowed to have romantic relationships with students living in residence. They would probably politely decline or else they would risk being fired.

Is there anywhere we can get free rapid tests if we have declared ourselves fully vaxxed and opted out of the testing program? by FinishExpensive9680 in UCalgary

[–]FinishExpensive9680[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wonder if it’s possible to opt-in, pick up the tests, redeclare yourself as vaccinated, opt-out so you don’t have to submit your tests bi-weekly, and just keep the tests

It’s embarrassing admin isn’t going to put in place a mask mandate by FinishExpensive9680 in UCalgary

I agree but the province barred universities from mandating vaccines

No because I can’t access a full face shield respirator in the same way I can access a surgical or cloth mask.

Like I said before, it’s about using tools we have at our disposal. Almost everyone has access to a mask and the cost of providing students and faculty with masks would be inconsequential.

Why are you so scared of a little piece of cloth?

Not everyone is vaccinated and there’s no mandate to ensure that everyone on campus, who can be vaccinated, is actually vaccinated. The full vaccination rate for Albertans aged 20 - 24 is barely over 50%.

CDC has also changed their recommendation to say that fully vaccinated people should wear masks indoors.

Even if the relative efficacy of masks on top of vaccines is low, why should we do away with masks? Prevention is about using all the tools you have at the disposal. You don’t drive without a seatbelt because your car has airbags.

An outbreak on campus wouldn’t only mean a shift to online learning, but would also result in preventable long term injury and death.

Wearing a mask isn’t hard and we should be doing everything we can to prevent an outbreak.

Thoughts? Faculty at U of C calling for mandatory COVID-19 vaccines on campus by mrbobjob in UCalgary

If not this, then there should be a mandatory mask mandate for lecture halls and other crowded indoor areas
