Gannon University: COVID-19 Response

August 4: Current COVID Protocols

COVID-19 remains a public health concern and we are continuing to track its presence on our campuses and in our adjacent communities. If community transmission rates return to high levels and severity of the illness rises, we will reevaluate and adjust as we have over the past few years in our management of this disease.

June 16: A guide to our current Ruskin Campus COVID-19 protocols

We are excited by our first cohort’s start earlier this month, and we are looking forward to the start of our remaining cohorts in August. As we welcome new and returning students and employees to campus for summer sessions and the Fall 2022 semester, we would like to share an update on Gannon’s current COVID-19 policies and procedures.
