Health Acknowledgement

The University is committed to the health and safety of its students and the entire HPU ‘Ohana.  We will take all recommended steps and follow applicable State and local laws along with applicable CDC guidance to prepare our HPU campus and facilities in anticipation of your arrival.  However, the health and safety of our University community depends upon each of us doing our part:  to stay safe, to maintain cleanliness (by wiping areas after use and keeping your Unit clean), and to monitor and assess your own health daily.  Orders from the local, state and federal government are subject to change and the University may be required to modify its programming, activities and offerings in order to comply with applicable law. 

• I agree to be responsible for my own behavior, to maintain the standards above, and to comply with University policies along with safety guidelines and rules set by the University, as may be revised from time to time.  Compliance with these rules is part of  the Student Code of Conduct (found in this Student Handbook). 

• I understand that failure to comply with these rules jeopardizes the safety of the entire community and may subject me to disciplinary action. 

• I understand that there is no way to completely eliminate the risk of exposure to a virus in a campus environment and that there are certain unique risks associated with any shared living environment.  In addition, individuals who may have been infected with illness may be asymptomatic for a period of time, or may never become symptomatic at all. 

• In addition, I understand that the University reserves the right to modify access to the Premises, close access to certain University facilities, impose occupancy limitations or other limitations in response to public health and safety concerns, local, state or federal law requirements or other University determinations in the interest of student health. 

You play an important role in keeping yourself, the HPU ‘Ohana and our larger community safe.
