HSU Campus Ready

The following is a press release from the California Governor’s Office. Humboldt State University and the CSU encourage you to consider using CA Notify, a free smartphone app designed to help reduce the transmission of COVID-19. The app is a private, anonymous, and secure tool that does not collect location data from any device and never shares user identities.

The following was sent from the CSU Chancellor's Office:

In keeping with previous efforts to provide current and prospective students and families with information, clarity and time to plan, the California State University (CSU) has announced that it is planning for an anticipated return to delivering courses primarily in-person starting with the fall 2021 term.

To keep the campus community informed, Humboldt State University will regularly send this e-newsletter with recent updates about HSU’s Fall semester, Spring semester, plus highlights of important current or new guidelines. 

Humboldt County Public Health (HCPH) has developed new guidelines related to travel and quarantine based on increasing cases of COVID-19 and the county’s recent move into the red pandemic tier. This is especially important as the holiday season approaches and Fall Break begins Nov. 23.

HCPH strongly discourages traveling for nonessential travel, including holiday travel. 

Humboldt County Public Health has announced that the county has moved into the red pandemic tier. Community risk level is considered substantial at this level and new restrictions will be in place. Learn more about the county’s response and closures here. 

Each day before coming to campus, everyone, including students, is required to do a wellness self-check -- another measure to prevent the spread of illness. If you have any of the listed symptoms that are uncommon for you (for example, many people have allergies and may have some of those symptoms regularly), please do not come to campus and follow the appropriate guidelines.  

All Staff and Faculty

Humboldt State University’s Spring semester will be similar to Fall as far as plans for instruction, flexible repopulation of campus, and student experience. The first two weeks of the semester and the two weeks following Spring Break will be virtual to allow for quarantine. There will be some face-to-face classes and campus operations will continue to be mostly virtual.

At this time, in-person events on campus aren’t allowed and the campus remains closed to the general public.
