Negative test results continue after sixth week of surveillance testing

Kerrville, TX – Today, Schreiner University conducted its sixth week of surveillance testing for COVID-19 in accordance with the University’s published protocols. Under the direction of Peterson Health, the University conducted 105 student tests and 17 employee tests. These were rapid response tests that are statistically unlikely to return a false positive. After analyzing the tests at Peterson Regional Medical Center, all tests were negative.

“This is indeed good news,” said Dr. Travis Frampton, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. “These results indicate that each of our efforts is contributing to a safer campus environment during these trying times. Thank you for helping keep the Schreiner community safe!”

The campus remains closed to the general public at this time.
