Bengal Pledge
Being a part of the Bengal community means taking essential steps to stay well and protect each other. Every student, faculty, and staff member has a responsibility to practice healthy behaviors and follow Idaho State University’s established safety guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Together, we can help protect our campuses, families, friends, and communities while focusing on Idaho State’s educational mission.
