Some local college students will be required to get a COVID-19 vaccination if they want to study on campus in the fall.
Hamilton College in Clinton and Colgate University in Hamilton have already decided to require the shots except for students with religious and medical exemptions.
A “substantial majority” of the Hamilton College community is already or soon will be vaccinated, President David Wippman noted in an April 26 letter announcing the university’s decision. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has found the vaccines to be safe and effective, he added.
“Although no vaccine is entirely without risk, we believe the risks of COVID-19 are greater, particularly in a congregate setting such as ours,” he wrote.

Brandon Clark pleaded guilty to the July 2019 killing of 17-year-old Bianca Devins.
A New York man who cut a 17-year-old girl’s throat in July 2019 and posted photos of the murder online in real time was sentenced Tuesday to 25 years to life in prison.
Brandon Clark, 22, pleaded guilty in February 2020 to the second-degree murder of Bianca Devins. Clark documented her slaying as it was unfolding, and photos of Devins’ dead body went viral on social media at the time.
Three members of Devins’ family read emotional impact statements during the sentencing hearing at Oneida County Courthouse in Utica, describing the void her death left in their lives.
