Face Covering Policy for Students<\/u><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Students are required to wear a face covering in classrooms and labs, regardless of vaccination status, unless there are medical concerns that would inhibit a student from wearing one.\u00a0 Certain offices, events, and activities may require a face covering and students who enter these offices, events, and activities are required to comply.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students who choose to wear a face covering at all times are able to do so.\u00a0 Individual choices should be respected by others. \u00a0 A face covering is not required when a student is actively eating or drinking. The face covering must fully cover both one\u2019s nose and mouth. The face covering is meant to protect others, in the event that a person is infected and is not a substitute for social distancing, hand washing, and other prevention measures found <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>. The face covering does not protect an individual from COVID-19.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students who are alleged to be not wearing a face covering, wearing a face covering incorrectly, or wearing an improper face covering will be documented and subject to disciplinary action through the Office of Student Conduct and may be issued an Interim Suspension.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recommend Sanctions for Face Covering Policy Violations:<\/b><\/p>\n

1st Offense:\u00a0 Official Warning<\/p>\n

2nd Offense:\u00a0 $50 Fine<\/p>\n

3rd Offense: $100 Fine and Probation<\/p>\n

4th Offense: $150 Fine and Disciplinary Probation<\/p>\n

Repeat offenses may result in a student being denied entry to class and any other action the College deems appropriate to protect the health and safety of others.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students with a medically driven reason for not wearing a face covering are required to submit their request to Health Services (201-684-7536) and receive a College-approved solution. Health Services will work with students to determine an alternative and consult with the Office of Specialized Services on an as needed basis.<\/span><\/p>\n
