Your Healthy Habits
COVID Response / Health & Wellness
Whether you are on campus or away, it is important that you take precautions to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. This is a shared responsibility and all students are expected to follow these guidelines and take these precautions at all times.
If you are in a category the CDC has deemed as higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19, consult the CDC’s extra precautions site and speak with your healthcare provider about risks and how to manage them.
LIMIT
close personal contact and maintain a minimum physical distance of at least six feet. Be mindful of physical distancing in small spaces including elevators, hallways, stairwells, and restrooms.
WEAR
cloth face coverings in classrooms and areas where you are not able to practice appropriate physical distancing, which includes most indoor public spaces.
WASH
your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds as frequently as feasible.
USE
hand sanitizer after interactions with people or objects if soap and water are not readily available.
COUGH or SNEEZE
into a tissue, sleeve or elbow, not your hands.
DO NOT SHARE
drinks, bottles, phones, desks, eating utensils, hygiene products or other personal use items.
STAY HOME
if you are ill or you have been notified that you have been in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19.
AVOID
touching your face.
REFRAIN
from shaking hands or other close bodily contact with others.
DISINFECT
any public equipment (fitness equipment, computers, water filling stations, etc.) before and after each use.
LIMIT
the size of gatherings. Currently no more than 10 people can gather indoors for a social gathering and 100 outdoors, provided you also follow six-foot distancing guidelines.
MONITOR
your health daily to identify cases early and to be mindful of contagion. If you begin to have symptoms of COVID-19, self-isolate immediately and contact Health Services and your RA. Or, if you are an employee, contact your healthcare provider.
