  • State of Hawai'i
    State of Hawai‘i Weekly COVID-19 Cluster Report June 24, 2021 Practicing faith-based traditions and gathering together to worship are essential activities for many people and communities. To keep staff and congregations safe during services and events, CDC recommends the following COVID-19 mitigation measures for unvaccinated individuals: correctly and consistently wearing a mask indoors, maintaining 6-feet of distance between non-household members, avoiding indoor spaces with poor ventilation, not congregating in common areas, not attending services or events when sick, and getting vaccinated for COVID-19. CDC Faith Based Recommendations. In June 2021, the Hawai’i State Department of Health investigated a cluster of 13 COVID-19 cases associated with a faith-based retreat and subsequent large gathering that took place on the U.S. mainland. To date, eight of 17 attendees from Hawai’i have tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19 (attack rate: 47%). Five secondary household cases were also identified. Four (31%) cases were hospitalized, including one case in hospice care. Only one (6%) of the 17 attendees reported being fully vaccinated for COVID-19. Several attendees confirmed that their symptoms started before travel or during the trip and before returning to Oahu. In addition, masks were not required during the retreat or large gatherings. The CDC recommends people postpone travel until they are fully vaccinated and delay travel if sick with a fever or symptoms consistent with COVID-19 to prevent exposing other people. The Hawai‘i State Department of Health is currently investigating a cluster of 11 cases associated with a place of worship on Kaua‘i.

  • President's Update June July
    Chaffey College PRESIDENT’S UPDATEJUNE/JULY 2021 Dr. Henry D. Shannon A Message from Superintendent/ President Shannon Summer has been busy and full of excitement for us at Chaffey College. By now, you’ve probably heard the news about our historic $25 million donation from MacKenzie Scott. You can read more about the gift in this newsletter, but I just wanted to share how humbled I am that she chose Chaffey to make a difference in the lives of students. The work we do obviously left an impression on her and we know that our mission aligns with causes for which she is passionate. We will not let her down. More than 160 faculty, staff and students gathered for a townhall discussion in late June to share ideas for how to spend this money. I am grateful to you all for your input and we have already started making plans for this tremendous gift. No doubt this will go a long way toward programs that will help students in need. VISION STATEMENT Professor David Karp suggested we place a portion of the donation into an endowment to extend the Chaffey College: Improving lives life of the gift. We should consider funds for apprenticeships and workforce development, suggested through education. InTech Director Sandra Sisco. And Yolanda Friday, dean of business and applied technology, as well as economic development, said Chaffey could really use an entrepreneurship center. These are all fantastic ideas. This fall, more students will be returning to campus for in-person instruction. Though it won’t be at prepandemic levels, we are thankful to be on the road back to normalcy at Chaffey College.
