The Board of Trustees of the University of Oregon will review and act on the UO’s state-mandated COVID-19 health and safety operational plan during a special meeting Thursday, Aug. 27, at 1 p.m.

The meeting will be conducted remotely with a livestream and telephone link available for public access. The livestream link and phone number are available on the board website.

An executive order issued by Oregon Gov. Kate Brown in June requires all public universities and community colleges to develop a written plan that details how they will comply with Oregon Health Authority standards regarding in-person instruction, research and residential activities. The UO’s incident management team has developed the plan using the latest guidance from federal, state and local health officials.
