The Student Union Building spaces are set for physical distancing to help maintain student and staff safety around COVID-19.

Here is what it means for in-person services and occupancy in the Student Union Building (SUB):

  1. 4000 level Self Serve meeting rooms are for individual use only to create safe study spaces for those most concerned with Covid Safety.
  2. The SUB ballroom is currently set for individual, physically distanced study and no food or drink other than water is allowed so that masks remain on at all times in that space.
  3. Mask/face coverings are mandatory. Everyone entering the building is required to keep their masks/face covering on at all times when moving though the SUB and while seated. The exception is when eating meals, where masks may be removed and put back on promptly upon finishing. When snacking and drinking, masks must be on between bites and sips. Staff will be moving around the SUB throughout the day to ensure masks/face coverings are being worn.
  4. Attempt to maintain physical distancing from other students when in the SUB.
  5. If someone has their mask off within the SUB, please avoid confrontation. Instead, kindly inform a member of staff at the front desk to assist with the enforcement of the mask mandate.
  6. We encourage the use of hand sanitizers that have been placed throughout the building.
  7. Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
  8. If wearing a mask/face covering, try to cough and sneeze into it; changing it immediately with a clean mask/face covering when you have the opportunity to do so. If not wearing a mask, try to sneeze and/or cough into your elbow. Masks are available at the front desk if needed.
  9. Above all, please monitor your health daily. Avoid visiting the Student Union Building (SUB) if you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms such as fever, headache, shortness of breath, cough, sore throat, loss of taste or smell, tiredness among others.
