UTMB Health does not have an institutional policy but I have forwarded your 
inquiry to the directors of student health and employee health for their 
responses.

Subject: [acupa-l] Policy on Contagious Diseases

Hi All,

Does anyone have a policy re the responsibilities of faculty members and 
supervisors if a student or staff member is contagiously ill in class or at the 
workplace.  We had an incident of a potentially contagious student wanting to 
attend class and not absenting his/her self.  As a result, departments are 
inquiring about rights/responsibilities in handling contagious students/staff 
members vis-à-vis human rights and individual responsibilities.

Any guidance appreciated.   Thanks, Nancy
