On behalf of Tulane Law School, we are looking forward to seeing you in New Orleans on Thursday, March 5th and Friday March 6th for the 32nd Annual Tulane Corporate Law Institute. It looks like we will have good weather for your visit and The Roosevelt New Orleans is ready to host the Institute.

We have received several calls asking us whether the Institute will be cancelled due to concerns regarding Coronavirus (COVID-19). While Tulane is carefully monitoring the situation, there are no plans to cancel the Institute at this time. Should the situation change, we will let you know by email.

In light of Coronavirus concerns, The Roosevelt New Orleans has indicated that they will do additional cleaning of work surfaces and shared areas and will deploy extra hand soap/hand sanitizer dispensers.
In addition, we would not be surprised if many attendees choose not to shake hands (apparently elbow-bumps are in fashion). Other common-sense precautions you should take include:

• Wash your hands thoroughly and often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going    to the restroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing;
• If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least                        60% alcohol;
• Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or sleeve—not hands—when coughing or sneezing;
• Avoiding touching your eyes, nose, and mouth to the extent possible; and
• Avoiding close contact with people who are sick.

If you have any questions regarding the Institute, please do not hesitate to contact Natasha Lacoste, the Director, Tulane University Continuing Legal Education, at nlacoste@tulane.edu. If you feel sick while you are at the Institute, please stay in your room and contact the Front Desk of your hotel for assistance.
We look forward to seeing you later this week.
