Effective May 18, 2020 and in accordance with guidance from the CDC and Minnesota Department of Health, Gustavus is requiring employees and students entering buildings on campus to wear a mask. Employees working alone in their offices do not need to wear masks, but anytime someone is on campus and within six (6) feet of another person, a mask will be worn (indoors or outdoors). Employees may use their own masks, or receive a mask from the College. Gustavus will be providing all employees with at least one washable mask as needed.
If you are currently an on-campus employee or on-campus student who wishes to receive a Gustavus-issued mask, please complete this form.
Masks MUST cover your nose and mouth to be effective. Should you need to temporarily remove your mask, then please follow the instructions below.
- Perform hand hygiene (wash with soap and water or use hand sanitizer) before and after handling a mask.
- Avoid touching the outer and inner surface while removing the mask (touch ear loops/strings only).
- Do NOT place masks on counters, computers, etc.
- Any time a mask is removed, it should be placed on a paper towel or stored in a brown paper bag (not plastic). The outside of the mask should be considered contaminated.
