Roger Williams University is closely monitoring swine influenza. Here are the University's current recommendations.
UPDATE
On October 8th the Rhode Island Department of Public Health informed higher education institutions in the state that H1N1 vaccine distribution for college aged students under 24 will likely occur in December. Once we receive our allotment we will make every effort to offer the vaccine to as many students as possible before the end of the semester.

University Health Services would like to remind all students, faculty and staff about flu prevention and care for both seasonal and H1N1 (swine) flu.
As you are likely aware from recent media coverage, the incidence of H1N1 flu has continued and is anticipated to persist through the fall and winter. The University Flu Committee is monitoring the situation closely and has a response plan in place to ensure that appropriate actions are taken to protect the health of our campus community.
