[SADivision 0502] FW: [Student Msging] Fw: Spring: 70% of Classes in Person
by Jennifer Jarvis 16 Dec '21

16 Dec '21

Good day, The correspondence below was shared with all CUNY students. Be well, Jennifer Jennifer L. Jarvis Interim Vice President Student Affairs and Enrollment Management Queens College 65-30 Kissena Blvd. Flushing, NY 11367 From: On behalf of EVC and Provost Lemons <cunycommunications(a)cuny.edu<mailto:cunycommunications@cuny.edu>> Sent: Wednesday, December 15, 2021 3:35:00 PM Subject: Spring: 70% of Classes in Person [The City University of New York] Dear Student, We are on track to return to at least 70 percent fully in-person courses on every campus for Spring 2022. This does not mean that online courses are disappearing. In fact, CUNY will continue to offer a much more robust selection of online and hybrid courses than before the pandemic. The reason for a more in-person presence next semester is simple: We now know that most undergraduate students perform better academically when they attend many of their classes in person and are able to interact more directly with their classmates and professors. This is especially true for first- and second-year students and community college students. And so CUNY — as the nation’s most celebrated engine of upward social mobility — has an obligation to you to deliver the mix of course offerings that will help you succeed in college and beyond. For the spring 2022 semester, students will benefit from a more dynamic student life, in-person office hours with faculty, and the many resources our campuses offer. Your safety remains our top priority: * Students taking in-person or hybrid courses this spring must be fully vaccinated when classes begin or they will be withdrawn from any in-person or hybrid classes. The only exception to this rule is the few students who apply and are granted medical exemptions or religious exceptions. To be sure that your documentation is approved in time, upload to CUNYfirst as soon as you are fully vaccinated. DON’T WAIT. For deadlines and additional information visit here<https://maestro.cuny.edu/trk/click?ref=zqtbwp23f_2-1uc942a-0-22ffx389b6x0mD…>. * Our weekly testing numbers reveal a University that is operating generally free of the virus. Since August 25, the University has conducted 87,016 tests of unvaccinated individuals, of which 271 have been positive, a rate of 0.20%, considerably lower than the city- and statewide figures. You can monitor the results of our weekly testing in the CUNY COVID-19 Safety Tracker<https://maestro.cuny.edu/trk/click?ref=zqtbwp23f_2-1uc942a-0-22ffx389b7x0mD…>. * CUNY’s random COVID-19 testing program of vaccinated individuals ramped up in the last week of November, adding to the measures we have taken to keep CUNY’s campuses among the safest places to be in all of NYC. Our goal is to test approximately 10% of the vaccinated community every week. Still, with cases on the rise in the country and the growth of the omicron variant we will remain vigilant and ready for additional safety measures should they be required, as we have throughout the pandemic. But for now, we look forward to welcoming many more of you back to a safe campus in January. Thank you for your commitment to your studies and good luck with your finals. Wishing you a happy and healthy holiday season! Sincerely, Daniel E. Lemons, Ph.D. Interim Executive Vice Chancellor and University Provost

Good afternoon team, Queens College’s Academic Advising Center seeks two Academic Advising Managers who will plan, coordinate, and manage academic advising services for new and continuing students and train and supervise professional staff. Often referred to as "the Jewel of the CUNY system,” Queens College sits on 80 acres of land and is a place of contrast: an urban school in a suburban setting.

[SADivision 0498] Re: Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund III (HEERF III)
by Irving Uribe 24 Nov '21

24 Nov '21

Good morning Student Affairs Enrollment Management team, Please take a few moment to read over the process for students to revoke consent with the American Rescue Plan Act. The process is as followed, If a request to revoke consent is received, the student must complete and sign the attached HEERF Revocation of Consent Letter in its entirety prior to the disbursement date and return it via email to a Bursar staffer. Please have students visit our Staff Contact Info page<https://www.qc.cuny.edu/admissions/bursar/Pages/Staff-Contact-Info.aspx> to determine who they should reach out to. Please also note: we can accept e-signed copies or copies that are signed and scanned. Students sending requests directly to Financial Aid/QC Hub should be directed to the Bursar's Staff Contact Info page.<https://www.qc.cuny.edu/admissions/bursar/Pages/Staff-Contact-Info.aspx> There the student can determine who to contact via email regarding the Revocation of Consent Letter. Please note: * Processing of the revocation request in CUNYfirst must wait to be done until one day after the original approval/consent was given. * A revocation request cannot be processed once awarding has begun for a student. * Please advise students to return the Revocation of Consent Letters asap as timing is very important. * Once we are in receipt of the signed Revocation of Consent Letter, it will be processed in CUNYfirst (if applicable). Best,

[SADivision 0497] FW: CUNY Random COVID Testing Program
by Irving Uribe 23 Nov '21

23 Nov '21

[https://files.constantcontact.com/72c72f1d001/eeb1fe04-69ee-4b73-9298-1bf5b…] From Meghan Moore-Wilk, Chief of Staff and William Graffeo, Coronavirus Taskforce Coordinator: We write to share with you a memo from CUNY which describes the launch last week of a CUNY-wide random COVID testing program for vaccinated employees and students who access CUNY facilities. Each week, a randomly selected group of individuals will receive notice via an email from no-reply(a)cleared4work.org<mailto:no-reply@cleared4work.org> for mandatory testing, which can be done at any CUNY COVID testing site<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T8yADEbDGXu4m3SZsQmkqWXHX4iUh9lMD4fsQ9CJhY2…>; no appointment necessary. (Note: CUNY COVID testing sites are closed<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T8yADEbDGXu4m3SZsQmkqWXHX4iUh9lMD4fsQ9CJhY2…> Thursday, November 25 through Sunday November 28 for Thanksgiving.) The test must be completed within 7 days of receipt of the email. Results will be available within 48 hours. Should you test positive for COVID-19, your campus access will be removed and your test result will be shared with Queens College’s Coronavirus Taskforce Coordinator William Graffeo who will contact you about the steps that must be taken. Campus access will be denied if you fail to comply with the testing mandate. Note that faculty are not required to accommodate missed classes due to non-compliance with COVID testing and missed classes may impact your academic performance. We appreciate your cooperation in this program that is aimed at mitigating the spread of COVID-19 at Queens College and other CUNY locations. Please see the memo, in full, below. -- November 17, 2021 Dear CUNY Community, As part of the University’s multi-pronged strategy to monitor and mitigate the spread of COVID-19, CUNY is launching a random testing program for vaccinated employees and students accessing CUNY facilities. Starting this week, a number of randomly selected, vaccinated individuals across the University will be contacted each week to be tested for COVID-19. The random testing program complements CUNY’s mandatory weekly testing for employees who have not disclosed their vaccination status and students who obtained a vaccination exemption. If you are selected in any given week, you will receive an email from no-reply(a)cleared4.org<mailto:no-reply@cleared4.org> with instructions to complete your registration and will have to test at a CUNY test site within 7 days (no appointment necessary). Your test result will be available within 48 hours and you will maintain your Access Pass to CUNY facilities while the results are pending. If your test result comes back positive, your Access Pass will be removed and you will be contacted by a Coronavirus Task Force Liaison for guidance. If you do not show up to be tested within the required 7-day period, you will be contacted by a campus or program representative on next steps. Being tested when you are notified is not optional and is necessary in order to obtain campus-wide results each week and thus help keep everyone safe. For additional information about the program, visit this FAQ<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T8yADEbDGXu4m3SZsQmkqWXHX4iUh9lMD4fsQ9CJhY2…> or www.adnas.com/CUNYhelp<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T8yADEbDGXu4m3SZsQmkqWXHX4iUh9lMD4fsQ9CJhY2…>. If you still have questions, students should contact their campus Local Vaccine Authority (LVA),<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T8yADEbDGXu4m3SZsQmkqWXHX4iUh9lMD4fsQ9CJhY2…> and employees their HR office<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001T8yADEbDGXu4m3SZsQmkqWXHX4iUh9lMD4fsQ9CJhY2…>.
