MEMORANDUM<\/strong><\/p>\n

TO:<\/strong> NC State Faculty<\/p>\n

FROM:<\/strong>\u00a0 Warwick Arden, Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost<\/p>\n

SUBJECT:<\/strong> Designation of Faculty, Graduate Teaching Assistants and Graduate Research Assistants\u00a0 with Mandatory On-site Status for COVID-19<\/p>\n

DATE:<\/strong>\u00a0 July 31, 2020<\/p>\n

Based on the State of North Carolina and UNC System COVID-19 reporting requirements, NC State uses a mandatory on-site designation to apply to faculty, staff and select students who may be expected to work at least some portion of their time on-site. Some faculty have already been designated as mandatory on-site so they can come on-site to use their office or research space. Other faculty have been advised to stay away from campus until they are designated in this way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The existing administrative process related to designating employees as mandatory on-site has been important for tracking and reporting activities on campus. As the fall semester approaches, we don\u2019t want this process to remain a barrier to you working on campus as needed. To make things easier, University Human Resources is working with the Office of Information Technology to designate all NC State faculty, including adjuncts, in the following categories as mandatory on-site:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
