Coronavirus Information

Update: August 20, 2020, 1:00 p.m.

To all Buffalo State College students arriving on campus as of August 20, 2020: 

We welcome you all back to Buffalo State. We hope you had a safe and healthy summer. Making a safe and successful semester happen will require a community effort. 

Campus Symptom Tracker

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Buffalo State is launching a Campus Daily Symptom Tracker for all students: including those commuting to campus and those who reside in the residence halls.

Students will receive a reminder to complete a questionnaire, seven days a week at 7:40 a.m., via email. A second reminder email will be sent at noon for those that have not completed the questionnaire.

The Campus Symptom Tracker must be completed every day if you are on campus. 

The Weigel Wellness Center will be monitoring the responses every day. We will contact you if you indicate on the questionnaire that you have been exposed to COVID-19 or have COVID-19 symptoms. 

When you complete the tracker, you will get a red, orange, or green circle: 

• If the circle is green: You are free to go to class. The green circle will have your name and say negative and have an expiration date of the next day. You must show this to your professor to attend class that day. 
   
• If the circle is orange or red: You must stay home or in your residence hall until you have been contacted by a Weigel Wellness Center health provider.
