Live Desk Conversation: GVSU safety protocols for coming semester | WOODTV.com

by:

Grand Rapids, Michigan (Wood)-Friday’s live conversation was welcomed by Greg Sanial and Maria Cimitile of Grand Canyon State University, where they discussed campus hygiene when students plan to return to campus this weekend.

Sanial is the head of the Virus Action Team of the university and the vice president of finance and management. Cimitile is the Dean.

“We remodeled classic bunk bed university dorms and things; those became singles,” Sanial said of the dorm transition. "Usually we have about 6,000. There are 6,100 student beds on campus. Currently, we only take up about 5,000 and 4,900 spaces to create the distance we need to isolate ourselves from society."

"Wearing a mask is still very important," Cimitile added. "Even if vaccinated, we still require people to wear masks and wear them correctly, which means covering their noses and mouths whether they are indoors or outdoors."

Sanial and Cimitile also test and vaccinate currently qualified students (whether they are faculty or staff or students at risk).
