Dear Cardinal Community,

This afternoon, Governor Pritzker announced plans to lift the State of Illinois’ indoor mask requirement, with some exceptions, by February 28. The Institutional Response Team will assess the effects of the State’s plan on our campus and will determine any modifications to the College’s mask policy. We plan to provide an update by next week. Until we have had the opportunity to make this assessment, everyone is reminded that the State’s and the College’s indoor mask policy remains in place.

Best Regards,

Dr. Peter Barger
