Dear Students,
We hope you are well.
We know many of you might be concerned reading reports about the new Covid-19 variant, Omicron. Following the First Minister’s briefing on Omicron earlier this week (Monday 29 November), we sent all students an update to reassure you that your safety and wellbeing is our number one priority and to remind you of the guidance we’re being asked to follow to keep ourselves and others safe. This includes the wearing of face coverings and regular testing. The latter will be extremely important before socialising during the festive period and in advance of travelling for Christmas.
We also emailed you this week regarding the current industrial action taking place on campus – you can read this again if you missed it. We are doing all we can to minimise disruption to you.
Many of you will be preparing for examinations. The SRC have produced fantastic resources to help you destress.
Finally, a big congratulations to all our students graduating this week and next in our winter graduation ceremonies. We are so proud of you all and please do tag us into your celebrations on social media, using our handle UofGlasgow or #UofGGrad21.
Take care,
Team UofG
