It’s the middle of February and the number of COVID-19 cases in the GWU family remains low. In fact, in Cleveland County the number of new cases, positivity rate, and hospitalizations are all down. This is good news for all of us on campus and for our nearby communities, too…but we can’t let up.

Just do it:  wear that mask, wash those hands, and give everybody at least six feet of distance.

We can all have a successful semester right here in The Springs…if we keep up the good work!
