Masking policy

CLASSROOMS: All students, faculty, staff and visitors — regardless of vaccination status — are required to wear a mask in classrooms, including while entering and exiting classrooms.

MEETINGS: Masks are also required for both vaccinated and unvaccinated people indoors when in meeting spaces in which groups of people are gathered and not able to socially distance due to space constraints, e.g., business meetings, student advising, faculty office hours, or engaging with visitors to campus in those indoor spaces.

ATHLETICS AND SOCIAL EVENTS: Masks are not required in outdoor settings. For indoor athletic and social events, masks are not required for vaccinated individuals, but they are recommended when social distancing is not possible. Unvaccinated individuals are required to wear masks indoors or when in areas where social distancing is not possible.

REQUIREMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS FOR OTHER INDOOR SPACES: If you are not fully vaccinated, you are required to wear a mask indoors. Even if you are vaccinated, the university recommends wearing a mask in indoor spaces, which is aligned with the latest CDC recommendations. See our face covering guidance for exceptions and more information.

These temporary requirements will be reviewed by Oct. 15.
