PEORIA, Ill. — Students and staff who plan to be on Bradley University’s campus in fall 2021 will not need to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
“Several factors went into this decision, including the numbers of people voluntarily getting the vaccination and the positive impact it’s having on COVID-19 positivity rates throughout the state,” said President Stephen Standifird.
“Although we don’t require vaccinations on campus, I remain a strong advocate of people getting vaccinated. Every eligible member of my immediate family, including my 12-year-old daughter, has been vaccinated.
“I strongly encourage anyone who is eligible to do the same.”
Standifird said the university will continue its COVID-19 surveillance program, and anyone who doesn’t show proof of full vaccination will have to participate.
Additionally, individual clubs and activities will have the right to require the vaccine in order to participate.
