The Windsor-Essex County Healthy Unit will offer free H1N1 vaccinations in the CAW Centre on two occasions later this month.
Students interested in receiving the shot should report to the CAW Centre on Nov. 18 between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., or Nov. 26 between noon and 8 p.m.
Just last week, vice-provost Clayton Smith issued an e-mail announcement to students detailing policy changes with regards to absences due to illnesses.
Students will now be able to miss tests, midterms, or exams without a doctor’s note, if they are exhibiting flu-like symptoms.
Instead, students are now asked to self-report to the university by logging into a recently implemented flu notification webpage.
Once students feel well enough to return to school, they should simply log in once again and indicate that they are feeling better.
This can later be printed, and the document can be provided to any appropriate professors.
The flu notification page can be found at www.web2.uwindsor.ca/h1n1/record/login.php.
