HICKORY, N.C. — Lenoir-Rhyne University in Hickory is the latest N.C. school requiring all students, staff and faculty to get the COVID-19 booster before returning to campus in the Spring.
The university sent out a letter saying a COVID-19 vaccine booster requirement will go into effect January 1st, 2022.
All students will be tested for the virus when they return to campus in the new year, and the university will continue to conduct weekly COVID-19 testing similar to the fall semester.
