Information regarding vaccination locations and details about the vaccine can be found on the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) website here. Second, if you are sick, stay at home and do not go out until all signs of illness go away. That means staying at home until you are free of fever, signs of a fever, coughing, and any other symptoms for at least 24 hours. You also should not leave home until those signs of illness are possible without the use of fever-reducing or other symptom-altering medicines (e.g., cough medicine). Third, practice recommended respiratory (coughing and sneezing) etiquette and hand cleaning advice. Also, wear a cloth mask when you do have to go out to help prevent spreading or contracting the coronavirus.

| Remote Instruction and Student Support Services | All Saint Paul College faculty,
staff, and leadership are dedicated to helping you succeed in your educational
goals by providing various options for course delivery. There are options for remote learning, in-person learning or a combination of both depending on your area of study. You
are strongly encouraged to try these new remote approaches or seek out in-person instruction through the many classes which are returning to campus in the fall of 2021. Minnesota State leadership is examining
further options for completing coursework, grading policies, and other options
that will be communicated by official college email when those decisions are
made.

| Remote Instruction and Student Support Services | With vaccination options now readily available to all adults, and limited youth population ages 12-15, across the metro region, the College is slowly bringing classes and services back to campus in response to the decline in new coronavirus cases across the state and country. The College will still require wearing cloth face coverings while on campus, following physical distancing guidance, group size limitations, and frequent surface disinfecting routines to help mitigate the risk of coronavirus exposure on campus. Health and safety guidance from MDH and the CDC will be monitored and campus operations may be adjusted if cases begin to rise or an outbreak occurs in our community. Information will be communicated to the college community if and when these changes occur. |
