Toreros, we need your help. Over the past few weeks, there has been a significant spike in COVID-19 positive cases recorded on our campus. Our current situation is critical and requires a strong call to action from each one of us. To stop this surge of COVID-19, we are initiating temporary directives — effective immediately through the end of February — for students living on campus. We are also asking students living off campus to remain especially vigilant during this period of high infection rates. Together, we can stop the surge. #OnwardUSD #StopTheSurge #TorerosTogether https://vimeo.com/511379440
