Make an Appointment to Get Tested for COVID in January

We’ve made it through an extraordinary and difficult year! Congratulations on persevering through Fall semester and for doing your part to prevent COVID-19 at SLCC. During the last four months, our case count has been low, and we’ve experienced very little spread of the virus on campus. Thank you for helping keep our community safe and healthy.

With the end of each semester comes the start of a new one, and preventing the spread of COVID-19 will continue to be a priority for SLCC during the next few months. One mitigation effort we will employ is COVID testing for all on-campus students, faculty and staff as early in the semester as possible. If you will be on campus at least one day per week during Spring semester, please make the time to get tested. To help in this, SLCC is implementing the following testing schedule :

• January 5-7, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Taylorsville Redwood Campus Student Center.

• Starting January 11, testing will be available Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at both the Taylorsville Redwood and South City campuses. The South City testing location is at CCM 1-110.

You MUST be asymptomatic in order to participate in on-campus testing. If you have symptoms of COVID-19, you will be directed to pursue off-campus testing and self-isolate while you wait for your results.

Testing appointments can be made online. From start to finish, testing should take no more than 2 minutes, and your results will be emailed to you the same day.

For students who qualify for on-campus testing, if you get tested at one of our locations by January 22, you will receive a $10 credit on your OneCard. This credit can be used at your convenience at any campus location where OneCards are accepted for payment, including food courts and bookstores.

Recognizing SLCC's 2025 Distinguished Faculty Lecturer Andrew Vogt, PhD Associate Professor, Engineering

The Distinguished Faculty Lecturer is a recognition of quality work by one of Salt Lake Community College’s full-time faculty and a charge to develop that work over an academic year into a public presentation. A committee chosen by the Associate Provost for Learning Advancement selects the faculty lecturer each year. The lecture takes place in the spring. Distinguished Faculty Lecturer Andrew Vogt, PhD Associate Professor, Engineering Dr. Andrew Vogt’s teaching philosophy is guided by two principles, curiosity and efficiency. “Curiosity leads us to study a topic and allows us to really understand the ins and outs of research, while efficiency is all about sustainability,” he says. Andrew describes curiosity as a pure, open-minded impulse to explore, such as the ease with which children learn new concepts with virtually no instruction. Efficiency adds maturity to that childlike impulse, creating structures and pathways for accomplishment. Andrew’s work has alwa...
