Information on COVID PCR testing data, active cases, and recoveries are provided in the Austin College COVID Dashboard.
The positivity rate of our community, along with vaccination status and area health conditions, will determine how we commit to conducting ourselves on campus this fall. We will be responsive to the rapidly changing dynamics and provide updates on health and safety protocols as needed.

Spring Term 2022 Protocols
Effective March 23, 2022
Re-entry testing after Spring Break has been completed and case counts remain very low. Based on current health indicators on campus, locally and regionally, routine COVID-19 testing is discontinued on campus effective March 23. This may change if conditions warrant. Austin College lifted the indoor mask requirement on Tuesday, March 1, based on CDC recommendation on February 25.
NOTE: Students, staff, faculty, and visitors must carry a mask when on campus. You may be required to wear a mask in particular spaces and in certain conditions.
Here are some examples:
- Masks are required for everyone when entering Health Services/Adams Center.
- You may be required to wear a mask when you are in a class, lab, research space, or in an office if specifically requested by a professor or staff member.
- An employee providing services (e.g., IT, Facilities Services, athletic trainer) may require the individuals receiving the service to wear a mask.
- Anyone conducting a meeting or event may require all in-person participants to wear a mask.
Thank you for being kind and considerate of others. We continue to support those who make a personal choice to wear masks.
