Responsible Charger Promise

During this challenging and stressful time when there are differences of opinion as to what is safe and what protects others, it is incumbent that we have a unified standard. The Responsible Charger Promise speaks to us as a community of learners supporting and respecting one another. The Promise is a promise of actions and commitments for the care and safety of others, as well as oneself in the prevention of COVID-19 transmission. As a member of the Columbia State community, you are asked to abide by and encourage others to endorse the Responsible Charger Promise tenets:

I WILL

  • Be empathetic for my fellow students, faculty and staff enduring the stress of the current COVID-19 outbreak.
  • Show patience and understanding knowing that it is a stressful time and I will make every effort to be a part of the solution.
  • Consider wearing a mask in buildings regardless of vaccination status.
  • Consider staying home if I exhibit any symptoms that may be COVID-19 related or my temperature is at 100.4 or greater.
  • Practice daily self-care, proper handwashing, and respiratory etiquette.
  • Avoid crowded places and avoid mass gatherings.
  • Practice and abide by social distancing (6 feet in distance) in my daily interactions with others.
  • Observe and abide by College established guidelines regarding the use of campus spaces.
