WINTER QUARTER 2023

Week 2: Rabbits and pieces edition.

What’s up, WWL-veticas!

With Lunar New Year on the horizon, we’re pulling this off-week edition out of our figurative hats to bring you a couple – nay, a fluffle – of pertinent updates before we burrow into the weekend’s festivities.

Enjoy. We’re glad you’re hare. - Ian

Quick, like a bunny.

Tritons, consider hopping on over to next week’s Student Well Fest – which kicks off Tuesday, Jan. 24 – for a two-day rabbit hole full of no-cost sessions, demos, and classes dedicated to your overall wellness.

We’re ear for it. Whether you come for the giveaways or stay for the multiple sessions dedicated to our eight dimensions of well-being – you otter be there.

Not in the phase.

Good news, on-campus dwellers: Phase 2 is in effect as of Jan. 20 – meaning that residents are no longer required to wear masks in their own unit (apartments, suites, or rabbit warrens) – while visitors are now allowed.

Not on the face. Although residential face covering requirements have dropped, your guard shouldn’t follow suit. Keep monitoring for symptoms each day, and please, respect the masking decisions of those around you.

Quick Hits and (Rab)Bits

Are RATs the new raccoons? Let’s not get ahead of ourselves… Although, like our favorite trash pandas, rapid tests are now distributed throughout campus – available in the same vending machines that have been doling out PCR tests for years.
