Dear Colleagues,
As we continue to navigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have established updated guidance regarding travel for all university-sponsored business. Travel within the State of Illinois will not be restricted. For the time being, travel outside the State of Illinois will continue to be restricted.
All travel, regardless of the source of funding, for university-sponsored business outside the State of Illinois is restricted and requires pre-approval from the Unit Executive Officer (UEO). Out-of-State and international university-sponsored travel may require a second level review. Illinois International will be sending out additional guidance about international travel soon.
This restriction is in place for both financial considerations and to make sure that any travel is safe for both the traveler and for our community. It is expected that permission to travel will be granted in a limited number of circumstances.
Please visit this link to more travel approval guidance on the Office of the Provost website for more details.
Sincerely,
Andreas C. Cangellaris
Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs and Provost
