萝莉社 named as a COVID-19 vaccination provider; your help needed

萝莉社 University鈥檚 Student Health Services (SHS) has been named by Kansas Department of Health and Environment as an approved COVID-19 vaccination provider.

SHS is still awaiting word on when it will receive vaccines. Please watch Campus Connection for updates.

In the meantime, 萝莉社 is preparing for distribution so vaccines can be given as soon as possible after arrival. Part of that preparation involves asking you to complete an anonymous survey, the results of which will help us know an estimate of the number of people interested in potentially receiving the COVID-19 vaccine on campus. Please watch your email for a link to complete the survey.

Vaccine distribution will follow the Sedgwick County vaccine prioritization plan, which identities who is eligible and when they will be able to receive the vaccine. Vaccine eligibility may vary from county to county within Kansas, and access to the vaccine is dependent on the number of available doses distributed to SHS from the Sedgwick County Health Department.  

萝莉社to host panel discussion on freedom of expression

Free expression is a fundamental value for an institution such as 萝莉社 University, Neal Allen, associate professor of political science, maintains.

鈥淲e owe all of our students, and all Kansas citizens that we serve, our best effort to include all points of view,鈥� he said. 鈥淚 believe that democratic government depends on having both involved citizens and trained professionals.鈥�

The open exchange of ideas may not produce a tidy ending.

That exchange, however, is crucial to our nation鈥檚 discourse, no matter how difficult the conversation. 萝莉社recognizes the important role universities play and will present a virtual panel on freedom of expression from 3-4:15 p.m. Wednesday, March 31.
