From UM website: COVID Protocol
Students are strongly encouraged to be vaccinated against COVID-19 to safeguard their health and the health of all members of our University and South Florida communities.
To be fully vaccinated, you must be at least two weeks past receiving the final does of an FDA- or WHO-authorized vaccine.
Students vaccinated outside of UHealth should upload a copy of their COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card to their MyUHealthChart account.
Surveillance testing played a significant role in our ability to successfully offer a safe, in-person educational experience during the past academic year. It will continue to be an important part of our overall efforts to prevent widespread COVID-19 transmission among unvaccinated individuals.
Any student who is fully vaccinated and who has provided proof of vaccination to the University via their MyUHealthChart account will be exempt from COVID-19 surveillance testing during the fall semester.
Any student who is not fully vaccinated or has not provided proof of vaccination will be required to take a COVID-19 test two times per week. Students will receive email or text message alerts to schedule their on-campus testing appointments. Students who do not comply with the testing requirement will be referred to the Dean of Students office and may have their campus access—including any on-campus living assignment—revoked and face appropriate disciplinary sanctions.
Symptomatic testing for students will be available through Student Health Service.
Students who are not fully vaccinated who test positive or who are identified as a close contact will need to quarantine or isolate off campus. Resident students who are required to quarantine or isolate will have hotel spaces and medical care available to them, but all expenses, including hotel spaces and meals, will be at their own expense.
Students, faculty, or staff who have symptoms of COVID-19, even if fully vaccinated, should consult their health care provider regarding testing or additional steps and should not come to campus.
All COVID-19-positive individuals, regardless of vaccination status, must participate in contact tracing. Fully vaccinated individuals who are close contacts will not need to quarantine or test after a known exposure. Individuals who are not fully vaccinated who are close contacts will need to quarantine for one week—off campus at their own expense—and test negative five to six days after exposure.
The use of masks in outdoor settings is no longer required on any University of Miami campus.
On the Coral Gables and Marine campuses, fully vaccinated individuals who are asymptomatic do not need to wear masks in administrative areas, such as offices, studios, labs, and research workspaces, which are at the discretion of the faculty or staff lead who can best assess risk within team members.
Masks are still required in classrooms and public spaces, including libraries, the Campus Store, the Herbert Wellness Center, and other publicly shared spaces, regardless of vaccination status.
On all campuses, individuals who are not fully vaccinated must continue to wear masks in all indoor settings.

Manny told the local press that all the staff was vaccinated. They felt it was important to set an example. and now, UM is requiring all faculty and staff to be vaccinated.

If one is going to worry about this, and I’m not because I’ve got other things to worry about, It’s not the staff I would be worried about.

"Football is going to drive us"
Jim Phillips, new ACC Commissioner in his remarks at the ACC Kickoff.
Shortly after Phillips was hired as commissioner, replacing John Swofford in January, he established the football subcommittee to look at ways to elevate football across the conference. Pitt coach Pat Narduzzi joined Swinney and Clawson in the group, in addition to athletics directors Heather Lyke (Pitt), Whit Babcock (Virginia Tech), Pat Kraft (Boston College) and Bubba Cunningham (North Carolina).
The league asked the group for new ideas for ACC football. The biggest feedback was twofold: a more aggressive approach to football marketing and promotion, and to have a football-first culture. That is why there have been changes, from increased coverage on the ACC Network, to exploring different ways to promote players of the week, to a larger social media presence, to planning a primetime announcement for schedule reveals and buy-in from coaches to make more television appearances to promote their schools and the conference.
The league has also established three more focus groups to get more feedback on an ongoing basis: one with recruiting coordinators, one with 28 players (two per team), and one with digital social directors. In addition, coaches asked the league to address its officiating program.
Currently, the NCAA requires schools to have divisions in order to play in a conference championship game, unless it can play a round-robin conference schedule. The ACC has tried to get the legislation changed in the past and failed. But this time around, the considerations are also important in a newly expanded 12-team College Football model, where the league would love to have multiple teams invited per year.
Asking for legislative relief would allow for the flexibility to look at all avenues for the league moving forward. During his meeting with ACC football coaches on Wednesday, Phillips talked about reimagining college football in this new era.
"If it goes to 12, it's going to open the door to say, 'OK, where's our best opportunity to get multiple teams in this thing?'" said Wake Forest coach Dave Clawson, one of three coaches on the ACC football subcommittee. "Does it lie with divisions or without? And so I think if it goes to this new format, all of these things are open. Do I see that changing in the next year or two? No. But I think that's part of a longer-term conversation."
Clemson coach Dabo Swinney, also on the ACC football subcommittee, noted he likes the division format, but would love the league to consider doing away with permanent crossover opponents as a way to get more teams to play each other. The only problem is there are multiple important ACC rivalry games that involve permanent crossovers, including Miami-Florida State and NC State-North Carolina.
"I think it's good to have divisions and to have some tradition within your league," Swinney said. "But if you do away with divisions, then you put everything in the hands of the TV people on scheduling."
That has to be part of the consideration in order to bring more exposure to ACC football. But part of the issue in that regard has been Clemson's dominance over the entire conference. Swinney doesn't necessarily view it that way, pointing out Alabama has been just as dominant in the SEC. But perhaps the narrative in the SEC is different because it has gotten more exposure, and more teams in position to compete for national championships.
