NYU School of Law Department of Residence Services

Important New Coronavirus-related Measures and Restrictions, and Possible Future Steps We are implementing a number of additional actions to keep the NYU community healthy and to contribute to checking the spread of the coronavirus. RESIDENCE HALLS WILL REMAIN OPEN: ... As is customary, student residences will remain open during spring break. Food service will be available at three dining halls: Kimmel and Lipton in Manhattan, and Jasper Kane in Brooklyn Restricting guests in student residence halls: Effective Thursday, March 12, NYU students will not be permitted to sign in short-term guests (including those with NYU IDs) into any residential facilities, at any location in New York City, or at any of our Global Academic Centers (aka, study-away sites). This policy will be in effect until further notice, and applies to both daytime and overnight guests. Cancellation or Postponement of Gatherings and Non-essential Activities Effective immediately through at least March 29, schools, departments, programs, and units are strongly discouraged from holding non-essential, large gatherings -- meaning those not related to core academic activities. These should be cancelled, postponed, or conducted in a "virtual" way that does not bring large groups of guests and members of the NYU community together in a single venue. We expect members of the community to exercise good judgment to maintain the health of the NYU community and check the possibility of the coronavirus' spread.

Dear NYU Law Community, The news about COVID-19 (coronavirus) has been developing rapidly, raising a number of questions. I want to assure you that the health and safety of our students, faculty, administrators, and staff are my top priority. You have already received updates about plans for prevention and response from University’s leadership. I encourage everyone to refer to the continuously-updated NYU Health Alerts webpage at https://www.nyu.edu//health-and-wellness/h...ealth-alerts.html for the University’s most recent information on the situation, its impact on NYU here and abroad, and important guidelines applicable to all NYU community members. I am hopeful that COVID-19 will cause few disruptions to our academic activities at the Law School. However, in light of recent CDC warnings, NYU Law leadership is developing contingency plans that will allow our community to continue educational activities while prioritizing our health and safety. I will share additional information on this front by email in the coming days. In the meantime, I encourage everyone to take individual measures to prevent the spread of infectious diseases, such as: frequent hand washing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds; using hand sanitizer in addition to hand washing or when soap is not available; staying home when sick; covering coughs and sneezes with tissues or an elbow; and cleaning and disinfecting objects such as handheld devices, phones, computers, etc. Please refer to the CDC’s prevention page at https://www.cdc.gov//2019-/about/prevention-treatment.html for further detail. I know this is a challenging situation, and I am committed to keeping you updated as we adapt to changing circumstances. Trevor Morrison
