Masks Optional on Campus
Masks are not required on campus. Of course, it’s fine if you want to continue wearing a mask. Face coverings may be required at off-campus locations, including clinical health care facilities.
According to CDC guidance, if you have been exposed to COVID-19, wear a high-quality mask for 10 days and get tested on day 5.
If you test positive for COVID-19, stay home for at least 5 days and isolate yourself from others in your home. Wear a high-quality mask when you must be around others at home and in public.
If after 5 days you are fever-free for 24 hours without the use of medication, and your symptoms are improving, or you never had symptoms, you may end isolation after day 5. You should wear a high-quality mask through day 10.
