President Friedman Addresses Ebola Crisis
President of Pace University Stephen J. Friedman sent out an email on Mon Nov. 3 in order to address the University’s response plan for the growing concern regarding the Nation Ebola Crisis.
The email stated that university officials have been monitoring federal, state, and local public agencies in order to remain up to date with information, news, and recommendations regarding Ebola.
Any University sanctioned or sponsored travel to Guinea, Liberia, or Sierra Leone by students, faculty, or staff is prohibited until further notice, and those who had travelled to the aforementioned places in the last 21 days should contact the University Health Care Center.
If University Health Care determines that someone was exposed to Ebola within the last three weeks, appropriate notice to public health officials will be made. Any person that was exposed will not be authorized to remain on campus or return to the University until public health officials have determined that the individual no longer requires monitoring.
For any questions or concerns regarding Pace’s response to the Ebola Crisis, one may contact President Friedman or members of the University Health Care Center.
