With a requirement in place that students, faculty, and staff be vaccinated against COVID-19, most fall 2021 classes (67 percent) were held in person. Masks were also required in all campus buildings. The number of reported cases as of December 10 was 45 (19 resident students, 20 commuter students, and six employees).

By the end of October, 92 percent of faculty and staff and 89.4 percent of students had been vaccinated. Exemptions for medical or religious reasons were granted to 10.5 percent of students, who have been required to submit weekly coronavirus test results, and to all remaining employees.
