Moravian College

Dog-friendly policy adopted

Moravian College announced a new dog-friendly policy that allows dogs on campus under certain conditions. "Since Moravian College is home of the Greyhounds, where students are proud to be called 'Hounds,' it seems even more appropriate that we allow faculty and staff to bring their dogs to campus," said President Bryon Grigsby. He noted that research studies have demonstrated the physical, emotional, and social benefits of canine companionship.

Faculty and staff dogs, which must be spayed/neutered, clean, well behaved, non-aggresive, housebroken, and up to date with vaccinations and flea treatments, must be registered with campus safety. Supervisors are required to notify employees in an office area if a dog will be present. For information, call or visit the college website.

Moravian College is located at 1200 Main St. For more information, call 610-861-1300 or visit www.moravian.edu.
