If you are interested in receiving the vaccine (Pfizer) on campus, please visit bit.ly/VaccineAtCUW and complete the form.
For the safety of our community, Concordia strongly encourages all students and staff to get vaccinated.
Vaccines are readily available in many locations, including here on campus. Although Concordia has not mandated vaccinations like many other colleges throughout the country, we do believe that they have been proven to be safe and successful.
Concordia’s expert faculty in science, medicine, and ethics recently hosted a vaccine panel to share information and answer questions regarding the safety, efficacy, and morality of the COVID-19 vaccines. Watch the discussion here:
