To increase access to the COVID-19 vaccine, DePaul held a clinic for students, faculty and staff on the Lincoln Park Campus in late April. About 450 community members received their first doses of the vaccine, some proudly taking selfies to share the news on social media. Vaccines are an important part of DePaul’s plan to welcome students home to campus this fall.
