Indoor masking in all campus buildings is optional for all members of the University community regardless of vaccination status, with the following exceptions:
- Instructors can continue to require that well-fitted, higher-grade masks or double masks be worn in instructional spaces (e.g. classrooms, laboratories). No explanation is required.
- Employees and students can require individuals to wear well-fitted, higher-grade masks or double masks in their personal workspaces or residence hall rooms, respectively. No explanation is required.
- Anyone identified as being a close contact with a known positive case must continue to follow all Campus Health and Safety protocols , including the requirement for up-to-date vaccinated individuals (fully vaccinated with booster shot if eligible) to wear a higher-grade mask and maintain social distance until getting a negative PCR test.
Individuals are free to continue wearing masks at all times should they wish to do so.
