Start the Semester Safely: 6 Things You Need to Know
Posted on August 20, 2021, by TCU
We're so excited to welcome you back to campus for an in-person semester. But before
we kick things off Monday, there are a few important things to keep in mind:
Wear Your Mask. Masks are required indoors, regardless of vaccination status. Masks help slow the
spread of the virus and protect others. Disposable masks are located at primary building
entrances. Read the full face covering policy .
Get Vaccinated. TCU’s Brown-Lupton Health Center provides free Moderna and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.
to 4 p.m.—no appointment necessary. If you have questions about the safety or effectiveness
of the vaccine, ask your healthcare provider or make an appointment at the Brown-Lupton
Health Center.
Report Your Vaccine. Students and TCU employees who have been vaccinated should let TCU know by using
the vaccine reporting form . If you are exposed to COVID-19, you will not be required to quarantine if you are
vaccinated and symptom-free.
Get Tested & Stay Home If You’re Sick. If you’re experiencing symptoms, stay home and get tested at one of the three convenient testing locations .
If You Test Positive, Let TCU Know. Reporting is quick and easy using the self-report form , and TCU will assign a care coordinator to help you with next steps.
Stay Updated. You can find the latest public health information on the Protect the Purple site . There’s even a FAQ section .
Remember, it’s on all of us to #ProtectThePurple, so thank you for doing your part!
