Abstract: Objectives: Examine publicly accessible HBCU COVID-19 policies and associations with community COVID-19 infection and vaccination rates, and utilization of a dashboard. Participants: Excluding unaccredited or closed programs (n = 5) and those without COVID-19 information on website (n= 18), 76 HBCUs were included. Methods: Data on vaccine requirements, masking, and other policies were collected. Student enrollment and demographics and community infection and vaccination rates were obtained from websites. Results: Between August 15 and September 6, 2021, 36% of HBCU websites indicated vaccination requirements for students, with differences by private (57%) and public (17%). Masking requirements were more prevalent in HBCUs in areas with >50% community vaccination coverage vs those with <25%. Private institutions were more likely than public to require faculty/staff testing (34% vs 19%). HBCUs in areas with low/moderate COVID-19 rates were twice as likely to require vaccinations than HBCUs with higher rates. Conclusions: Easily accessible COVID-19 policies may help guide community prevention measures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
