News & Announcements
Swine Flu Preparedness Update Like many colleges and universities across the country, Rider has been experiencing flu-like illness among students, faculty and staff. The good news is that the numbers are still relatively small. As of the start of the spring semester, we know of 12 students across both campuses and no faculty and staff who have reported flu-like illness. That brings the total of reported flu-like illness since the start of the 2009-2010 academic year to 189 students and 41 faculty and staff. Three students were diagnosed with H1N1 (swine flu) during the fall semester; none have been diagnosed this spring semester. Procedures for dealing with these cases have proceeded as planned.
