Faculty Guidance for Masking While Teaching
-
If faculty choose to unmask in the auditoria while teaching, all faculty should remain masked until they arrive on stage, at the podium. This should be at least 12 feet from students.
- All faculty may unmask at the podium and should consider placing mask in a bag.
- Faculty should re-mask before allowing students to come to the podium for questions and let students know in advance that they should not approach the podium until faculty are masked.
- Faculty should remind students that they must continue to remain masked.
- Faculty closer than 12 feet to students in a teaching space should not remove their mask.
- Faculty are strongly recommended to test twice weekly if they are choosing to unmask, to further reduce the risk of transmission—regardless of vaccination status.
