2020-2021 Event Guidelines

UND recognizes the positive impact of social engagement and participation in campus activities. UND will strive to provide students, faculty, staff and campus visitors with opportunities to engage in campus events outside the classroom while mitigating the spread of COVID-19. Given the fluid nature of COVID-19, event plans may need to be adjusted as conditions change to support the health and safety of the campus community.
