What You Need to Know Before Coming to Campus
The College is taking many precautions to provide a safe, healthy environment for students, faculty and staff. Some of these include:
- Maintaining one clearly marked entry point to each building.
- Requiring all students, faculty and staff to wear a face covering that covers the nose, mouth and chin to enter a building. A limited number of disposable facemasks will be available. Please provide your own if possible.
- No-touch temperature scans. If your temperature is 100.4 or above, you will not be able to enter a building.
- Return-to-Campus certification. Forms will be available online next week and at the entrance to each building. You must complete the certification form every day you come to campus.
Please remember that, if you are unable to comply with any of the above precautions, you can still access all student services online.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Response and Preparedness
Tri-C’s Office of Compliance and Risk Management is monitoring the development of all potential and confirmed cases of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in the United States. Senior leadership at the College is meeting regularly to guide Tri-C’s processes, plans and protocols in regard to the situation.
On March 9, 2020, public health officials confirmed three cases of COVID-19 in Cuyahoga County. In response, Gov. Mike DeWine declared a State of Emergency in Ohio, an action that allows state departments and agencies to better coordinate their responses to protect citizens.
Tri-C is taking precautions to ensure the safety and health of the Collegewide community. In addition to issuing health bulletins on COVID-19 symptoms and prevention, the College has suspended all international and domestic travel for staff and students until further notice.
