MASKS, SOCIAL DISTANCE, AND HYGIENE
- Masks and social distancing are no longer required if you have been vaccinated.
-
Unvaccinated persons should continue to wear a face mask when indoors on campus except when in a private living or work space, eating or drinking in a designated eating area, receiving medical care, or if you have a medical exemption to not wear a mask. When we know more about our overall on-campus vaccination levels, the University will reconsider this protocol.
