Recently, Elizabethtown College was nationally recognized by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the American College Health Association (ACHA) for its COVID-19 campus signage and digital toolkit as an example of a best practice for other institutions.

The digital toolkit was created by the College’s Office of Marketing and Communications team with the support of the College’s COVID-19 Taskforce to promote consistency with important campus messaging as well as provide a consistent visual look. The digital toolkit was launched on etown.edu for easy access and user-friendly sharing and printable options with specific dimensions also provided for accuracy.

ACHA and CDC developed “Behavioral Change Approaches to Promote COVID-19 Mitigation Behaviors Among Students” to provide examples of behavioral change approaches implemented by colleges and universities to promote everyday strategies that reduce the spread of the virus.
