Clarification: New Deadline for Faculty, Non-Teaching Instructional Staff and ECPs to Upload Proof of Vaccination
Dear CUNY employee,
The below clarifies an email you received yesterday that had incorrect information. We thank Professional Staff Congress President James Davis for bringing the matter to our attention.
As I recently shared, the CUNY Board of Trustees voted on January 31 to authorize a vaccine mandate for faculty, non-teaching instructional staff and employees in the Executive Compensation Plan in compliance with a public policy directive issued by Governor Hochul.
To comply with the Board’s mandate, all full- and part-time faculty, non-teaching instructional staff (… Read More »
Dear CCNY Community,
The Cleared4 Health Check system is not operational this morning for most individuals. Public Safety has been notified and will allow entry to your class or work area. Please only enter the campus if you are vaccinated or have a valid negative COVID test. As soon as the system is restored I will be updating you.
Sincerely,
Ken Ihrer

At this… Read More »
Dear CCNY Community,
As you may have heard, Governor Hochul lifted the mask mandate for New York State. However, this change in policy does not impact CUNY as of this memo. CUNY is still enforcing a mask mandate while in CUNY buildings. Please make sure you are wearing your masks properly while on campus to protect yourself and others.
Please note that CCNY has purchased KN95 masks, which are available to you at the security guard stations. If you need a mask or want a higher quality mask, please ask a security guard for a KN95.
If CUNY changes its… Read More »
Dear CUNY employee,

The policy requires all full- and part-time faculty, all non-teaching instructional staff (which includes, among others, NTAs, CLTs and those… Read More »

This memo is a follow-up to the Human Resources (HR) memo dated January 18, 2022, which informed employees that effective February 28, 2022 they are expected to return to in-person work at 70% of their work schedule.
Please note that from January 28, 2022 through February 27, 2022, employees are expected to continue following 50% in-person capacity guidelines which have been in place since August 2021. This means 5 out of the 10 days in a two-week work cycle employee must be on campus.
HR urges managers/department heads to plan for the increase in their department’s personnel… Read More »
Dear Faculty,
As many of you prepare to return to campus, I wanted to ensure that you are aware of the campus access protocols. Every person coming to campus must show proof of vaccination or have a negative COVID test result that is no more than seven days old. This is done through your Cleared4 account.
Adjuncts only
Most adjuncts have a start date in CUNY First of 1/28/2022. This means your Cleared4 account is in a state of “paused.” Because your account is paused, it means that your vaccination information from CUNY First has not been sent… Read More »
Dear Faculty,
There have been some changes to CUNY’s quarantine and isolation policies that I would like to share as it pertains to classroom exposures.

Notify your chair and your class of the temporary modality change and send an email to
provost@ccny.cuny.edu
. If you cannot teach, notify your chair immediately
Follow isolation… Read More »
