The WKU COVID-19 case dashboard will now be updated twice weekly.

In an email to faculty, WKU President Tim Caboni said the university would announce new positive cases on both Tuesdays and Fridays.

The time the numbers are posted will vary, Caboni said.

It was previously only updated on Fridays. 

Last Friday, WKU reported 155 new cases. Of these, 150 were students, and five were faculty.
