URGENT! Testing Volunteers Needed!

Help keep UMBC students, faculty and safe this semester!

Volunteers are needed:

Sun, 1/24, 8:30 am - 12:30 pm
Sun, 1/24, 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm

To assist during residential student arrival on campus.

Residential Student Testing Protocol: 

Residential Students will be able to test themselves in their vehicles at arrival.

Prior to arrival on campus resident students will need to download an app and receive a unique, emailed QR code to test.  Some residents may not have the app at arrival and will need assistance from volunteers.  

VOLUNTEER ROLE:  

Volunteer will provide assistance to a small number of resident students who do not have the app.  Volunteers will instruct a student to complete a required form prior to their test.  This task will take just a minute or two and will be accomplished by remaining physically distant.

WHERE?

Volunteers will be stationed in 5  indoor assistance locations where resident students will go if they do not have the app at arrival. 

These indoor assistance locations are:

The Black and Gold Room for apartment community residents (Terrace, Hillside, and West Hill).

The Harbor Café for Erickson Hall residents

The Shriver Lounge for Harbor Hall residents

The Patapsco West Classroom for Patapsco Hall residents

The clubhouse for Walker Ave. residents

Please E-mail John Schaible at schaible@umbc.edu with your desired day(s) and shift(s). More detailed instructions and location assignments will be provided.
