Subject: mask policy reminder
Importance: High

Hello everyone

In light of the high transmission rates of COVID in recent weeks, I thought it best to remind everyone of  the mask requirement for campus.  University policy 44.102 which went into effect: August 31, 2021 states:

> From the policy: 
1. Face Coverings
"Face covering" (or "mask") as used herein shall mean a surgical or N95 mask or a cloth face covering that is made of two or more layers of washable fabric; completely covers the wearer's mouth, nose, and chin; and that fits snugly against the side of the wearer's face and doesn't have gaps. A face covering may be commercially made or handmade. Face shields are not acceptable face coverings. Community members may wear both a face shield and a face covering, but not a face shield alone.

Outdoors:
Individuals are not required to wear masks outdoors, regardless of vaccination status, except for when entering, exiting, or waiting in line to enter any building on OHIO campuses. The University advises those who are unvaccinated to wear a mask if physical distancing of six feet cannot be maintained in crowded outdoor settings, or during activities that involve sustained close contact with other people. Under certain circumstances outdoors where the likelihood of transmission is increased, including but not limited to large events or activities that include individuals in close proximity, the university may require masking.
Indoors:
All individuals are required to wear masks in indoor public spaces on OHIO campuses, and on public transportation.
Masks must cover the nose, mouth and chin as follows:
When entering, exiting, or waiting in line to enter any building on any campus of the Ohio University.
While in any Ohio University building and in areas that are accessible to and are intended for the use of the public or by more than one person, including classrooms.
In any public transportation, such as a bus or other public transit vehicle, a taxi or ride sharing vehicle, any other vehicle for hire, or at a transit stop or waiting area for any public transportation.

             Face coverings exceptions
f. In one's own residence hall room or office, while maintaining appropriate physical distancing.

Please wear your face mask in the proper fashion, covering your nose and mouth upon entering any of the campus buildings.  If your office door is open, in particular in crowded hallways, please keep your mask on; please close your office door if you wish to take your mask off when doing work alone in your office.  Departmental meetings and such held in person require masks be worn by all parties or the meeting should be held virtually.

Also continue to social distance and wash your hands often.  If you need masks, hand sanitizer or other COVID related supplies, please let me know.

To keep all Russ College faculty, staff and students safe and healthy, please adhere to the protocols in this policy.

Thank you.

Luanne
