Welcome to Spring 2021! We hope you all had an enjoyable and rejuvenating break.
As we begin the new semester, we would like to ask everyone at both our Whitewater and Rock County campuses to continue to follow the principles outlined in the Warhawk Social Covenant. In that vein, please know that the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater expects all faculty and staff who will be on campus during the spring 2021 semester for any reason to get a COVID-19 test once every two weeks.
The testing information is listed below. If you have any questions, please visit our COVID-19 website at https://www.uww.edu/warhawks-return for information.
Also, please remember the academic calendar has changed slightly. Spring Break will be held April 19-23, 2021. As it stands right now, we will return to campus after Spring Break to complete classes, final exams and commencement. If conditions change, we will move to remote instruction for the completion of the semester. That decision will be made during the spring semester early enough to prepare for instruction, and for campus departure plans for students who will not be returning after Spring Break.
We recognize that Spring will bring its own challenges but if we know that if we remain focused on our students and each other, we will have a safe and successful semester. As always there is a lot of activity so please check out campus announcements to stay informed and find ways to get involved.
Finally, none of what we do would be possible without you. We want you all to know that we appreciate the time and effort that you all put in to making UWW the special place that it is. Please feel free to email your questions and feedback to your representative at any point in the semester.
