Masks

When is masking required on our campus?

Under county guidance, you must mask if you are sick with symptoms of cold, flu, or COVID-19, or if you test positive for COVID-19 (even if asymptomatic) and must be around others.

For asymptomatic individuals, everyone is recommended to mask if you are exposed to someone with COVID-19, for 10 days from the last day that you were exposed.

Please note that some event organizers may require masks due to the nature of the activity. Please check event-related information for relevant guidelines.

In addition, certain locations and programs on campus, such as in the arts, music and athletics, or various events, may have masking requirements. Those requirements will be determined by the department chairs and the Dean of the College. And if county guidance changes, indoor masking could once again be required for all members of our community.
