Health & Safety
-
All visitors to campus are expected to commit to take preventative measures to promote one another’s health during the COVID-19 pandemic. As public health officials help improve the understanding of how to safeguard communities while returning to in-person activities and work, RBC will continue to monitor recommendations from Virginia’s Public Health Guidelines for Higher Education, VDH and CDC and adapt to changes.

Visiting Campus
-
Campus gatherings, including all events and meetings, are subject to recommendations from Virginia’s Public Health Guidelines for Higher Education, VDH and CDC guidelines. External events and those with visitors should be converted to virtual gatherings. Exceptions will include a small set of college traditions, as approved by the President’s Leadership Team. Programs that have traditionally included alumni or members of the external community may be adjusted, suspended or taken online. The College will continue to update the alumni community and stakeholders.
