"We believe an informed community is a safe community; therefore, we have created a COVID-19 online case dashboard for the fall semester. The online dashboard will be regularly updated as new cases of COVID-19 are identified this semester. Students, faculty, and staff members are encouraged to bookmark the dashboard and monitor it throughout the year. Campuswide e-mails will not be issued after each positive test. Campuswide notifications will be reserved for larger outbreaks that may affect operations." ~ Buffalo State College President Katherine Conway-Turner via WKBW
