Announcements
Reminder to please stay home when ill
The province is now in Step 3 of its response to COVID-19 and has removed remaining health measures. The requirement to isolate when symptomatic or ill with COVID-19 has been lifted, however the province recommends the practice continue. Mount Royal strongly recommends that University students, faculty, employees and visitors do not come to campus if they are symptomatic or ill with COVID-19 or any other communicable illness and are encouraged to complete the self-isolation/case report form when positive or experiencing symptoms. Keep visiting mru.ca/COVID19 for updates.
