The flu Point of Dispensing is returning to Ithaca College after two years and will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Oct. 15 in Emerson Suites. This year, individuals who wish to be inoculated will have to present their insurance cards, a requirement that did not exist when the flu POD was last organized in Fall 2022.

In a typical year, we have been able to immunize 1,000-plus faculty, staff and students in a 4 to 5-hour period with an average waiting time of approximately five minutes.

The college informed students the on-campus flu vaccine clinic will not be available for Fall 2022 because of the many locations in the community offering flu vaccines.
