As announced before classes started in September, the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh will continue in-person, face-to-face classes after Thanksgiving break.

Traveling and getting together in small groups, particularly with people you have not been with in a while, are common ways COVID-19 is spreading through our communities. If you can stay on campus or in town, please consider staying. Students should connect with the Dean of Students if they require any accommodations.

Required COVID-19 testing

Any students who are leaving campus for the Thanksgiving break should sign up for a COVID-19 test at Albee Hall before you leave.

Students traveling over the holiday should also sign up for a test upon their return, and students who live on campus should sign up for two (at least 48 hours apart).

Monday, Nov. 23: 9 a.m.–5 p.m.
Tuesday, Nov. 24: 9 a.m.–5 p.m.
Wednesday, Nov. 25: 8 a.m.–noon
Sunday, Nov. 29: 1–6 p.m.
Monday-Friday, Nov. 30–Dec. 4: 10 a.m.–4 p.m.

Final reminders

If you gather with a group of any size this holiday:

• Wear a mask to protect you and your family
• Wash your hands
• Stay at least 6 feet away from others
• Don’t attend large gatherings
• Practice these safety measures even in small gatherings

As always, students who have symptoms or who have had close contact with someone who tests positive for COVID-19 should consult the Student Health Center or their primary physician or local healthcare clinic.
