ITHACA, N.Y. – After lengthy deliberations, Ithaca College and the Liberty League have come to the decision that no spectators will be permitted on campus to attend any spring sports this upcoming season.
Â
The enhanced health and safety protocols require significant changes to IC visitor and guest policies. Due to these protocols, access to the Ithaca College campus is limited to current members of the Ithaca College community (students, faculty, and staff) approved to access campus and those who have been invited by the college as approved by a vice president.
Â
The no spectator policy includes members of the IC community not competing or part of game day personnel.
