Residence Village quarantine implemented
At the direction of Denver Department of Public Health (DDPHE), the University is immediately implementing a two-week quarantine of students in its Residence Village, a community comprising 28 townhomes in four structures. This action affects 137 students.
The DDPHE determined that 57 percent of all positive COVID-19 cases on campus can be traced to the Residence Village, and that classrooms are not a source of spread.
Per a change in DDPHE directive, the University also plans to begin campus-wide surveillance testing starting with the students living in the Residence Village. Plans call for the surveillance testing to eventually include all residential students, student-athletes and commuter students. To date this semester, no employees have reported testing positive for COVID-19.
