coronavirus; covid-19

Since the COVID-19 shutdowns, thousands of students, faculty and staff are heading back to universities to resume an on-campus experience. To safely return, vaccines have been an essential part of many institutions’ strategies.

As Mason faculty members reflect on their experiences teaching during a global pandemic, they say they’ve learned some lessons they’ll bring into the return to a more traditional academic year.

Theresa Davis, PhD, was recently featured in The Scroll, Mason's Alumni Association's monthly newsletter. Davis shares her experience leading the telemedicine division that supports intensive care units across the Inova system during the pandemic and representing the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses at the White House.

As we turn our attention to the Fall Semester, we must all continue to do our part and work together to keep Mason safe. This starts with new policies for COVID-19 vaccination, testing and masking.

Elected officials recognize Mason’s contribution to fighting COVID and thank nurses and staff.
