Concerns About Flu?
The Carleton community is understandably concerned about how H1N1 flu could affect our campus. We've set up this web site as a clearinghouse of flu information and campus updates.
Essentials to know at this time are:
- Like most colleges this flu season, Carleton has received many reports of influenza cases on campus. We will monitor these reports closely and update the campus community as needed.
- Students, faculty, and staff with flu-like symptoms are asked to report their flu cases online here to help us track and respond to the spread of flu at Carleton.
- We recommend that faculty, staff, students and families review our FAQ’s About H1N1 at Carleton.
- All members of the campus community should know the symptoms and review the CDC's prevention tips. You can also utilize the newly-created Minnesota FluLine (MN FluLine) at 1-866-259-4655 for information and treatment options. Professionals will be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. People with limited English skills will be connected with an interpreter. There is no charge for the call.
- There are currently no plans to cancel classes or study-abroad trips, and no restrictions for travel.
