Welcome to the first newsletter of the new academic year! We'll keep you up to date with what's on at Warwick in two short newsletters each week. You can always find more news and opportunities on our website and the MyWarwick app.
As we start the new year, we'd like to remind you that face coverings are a really vital part of our community effort to keep safe on campus. We all have a responsibility to protect both ourselves and others, so please do wear a face covering when you are moving around crowded or enclosed spaces, and when you are in learning, teaching, research and non-library managed study spaces.
We have more guidance on our Stay Safe at Warwick pages. Get a vaccine in our vaccination clinics this week and pick up a covid test 10-4 Monday to Friday.
