I encourage those that have not been vaccinated to get vaccinated, so we can resume all activities before the pandemic and protect people in our community.” – Makayla, College of Science and Mathematics student

I got vaccinated to get back to a normal way of life and to stop the spread.” – Grace, College of Education student

One of the most significant ways you can show compassion at the moment is to get vaccinated. We are at a unique point in history where the return to our pre-COVID activities requires an individual contribution from each and every one of us.” – Mahadia, president of the Undergraduate Student Government Association

Note that masks are required in campus shuttles or in clinical spaces such as Augusta University Medical Center, the College of Nursing’s Nurse-Managed Health Center or the Dental College of Georgia clinics.
