COVID-19 Weekly Update - week ending 2/4/22

Effective Monday, Feb. 7, masks will be optional during chapel.  Those with concerns can email the Chapel Office.  In addition, masks will be optional for performances in the chapel.  This decision was made in light of declining case counts the past two weeks.  Should we see another spike, we may reimplement this requirement.  This will of course prompt questions about masks in classes.  We are evaluating that next in consultation with faculty leadership and will keep the classroom mask requirement in place until that process is complete.
