Help Keep Campus Safe

Kirkwood has always been a community that prides itself on working together to achieve our goals, and our response to COVID-19 has been no different. It is important that we all do our part. 

There are a few simple steps we all can take to help make this academic year productive. It takes all of us working together to keep our campus community safe:


  1. Get vaccinated. This is the most helpful thing you can do to protect yourself, your friends, and co-workers and to prevent the spread of COVID-19. COVID-19 vaccines are readily available, safe, and highly effective. Vaccines are available for free in many locations.
  2. Stay home if you are sick. This is especially true if you have a fever, shortness of breath, loss of taste or smell, or other symptoms of illness.
  3. Get tested if you have COVID symptoms. Testing is readily available through Test Iowa, local health care providers, and many local pharmacies.
