    Covid-19 Updates

    In response to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the need to enforce distancing protocols, Baruch College has very limited campus access for students, faculty, and staff. All student support services and administrative offices are fully operational in distance formats.

    Reporting Covid-19 Cases

    Reporting Covid-19 Cases

    Baruch is working with CUNY to maintain accurate records of any coronavirus cases in our community. Please follow the steps below to report a COVID-19 case (e.g., exposure, self-quarantine).

    When to report: Once you have spoken with a medical professional, and if you are determined to be at risk or given guidance to self-quarantine, please immediately notify the College.

    Where to report your status:
    Students should email the dean of students at deanofstudents@baruch.cuny.edu.
    Faculty and staff should email the Executive Director of Human Resources Andrea Caviness at andrea.caviness@baruch.cuny.edu.

    What to report: Please address the following, as appropriate:

    • You have a good faith belief you have been exposed to coronavirus and have self-quarantined.
    • You were in close contact with someone who has tested positive, and you have self-quarantined.
    • You attended a large gathering that resulted in a self-quarantine.
    • You are actively sick with COVID-19 symptoms and are either self-quarantined or directed by a medical professional to self-quarantine.
    • Baruch’s coronavirus liaison is responsible for collectively reporting this information to CUNY.

    Please consult CUNY’s guidelines for suspected exposure here.
