Online Orientation Begins Today
Designed as a three-week online course from August 22-September 9, students commit about four hours of self-paced work the first two weeks, followed by attending various Zoom sessions the third week.
During these weeks, students learn how to use Moodle (our learning platform), gather resources, build community, and get acquainted with academic requirements and student life opportunities.
There’s no need to sign up; incoming students receive an email when the course opens!

COVID-19 Dashboard for August 15-19
Reported employee cases: 0
Reported student cases: 0
Students in quarantine or isolation: 0
Reported cases only include students and employees who have been on campus within a period of time during which they may have been contagious. According to the CDC this includes two days prior to the onset of symptoms or a positive test.
If you have recently tested positive for COVID-19, please report that to the appropriate person. For employees, that person is Michael Morrow (mmorrow001@luthersem.edu). Students should contact Leon Rodrigues (deanofstudents@luthersem.edu).
Contact Tracing Protocol
When an on-campus case of COVID-19 is reported, that person is first asked to stay off-campus and isolate in accordance with CDC guidelines. In addition, the seminary takes two steps for contact tracing:
1. The Minnesota Department of Health is notified, per guidelines for institutions of higher education
2. The person reporting the case is asked to identify “close contacts”; the close contacts identified are notified of the exposure and asked to follow CDC guidelines.
