Webinar: Evidence-Based Ways to Make Student Housing Healthier & Safer Post-COVID-19

by Sarah Daniels

On June 17, Student Housing Business hosted a webinar called “Evidence-Based Ways to Make Student Housing Healthier & Safer Post-COVID-19: A Fireside Chat with Paul Scialla of Delos.” This in-depth discussion centered on COVID-19 and how to promote wellness and comfort in student housing.

As students return to in-person classes for Fall 2020, there is a greater demand than ever for buildings that promote indoor health and safety. As Scialla explains, “The simple fact is that what surrounds us matters. What we touch matters. What we breathe matters. How we congregate matters.​” Methods for promoting indoor building health have never been more important.

Listen to this complimentary webinar on safety and health in student housing by here. Topics discussed by Paul Scialla and Student Housing Business include:

  • Upgrading student housing units/installing systems before students return
  • Health safety rating programs and seals in student housing
  • The “Zero CapEx” model
  • Indoor air quality/purification and promoting health in the indoor environment
