Update to campus on face coverings from the Chancellor
In an email to the ECU campus community on July 1, Chancellor Rogers shared the following update on face coverings:
ECU requires face coverings in the following indoor situations to protect against a possible COVID-19 surge upon return to full density on campus:
- Classrooms, teaching laboratories, studios and other spaces where instruction occurs, unless a safety plan has been submitted and an approved exception has been issued,
- Any indoor setting where social distancing of at least 3 feet cannot be maintained, and
- Other spaces identified per the current Governor’s Executive Order.
On ECU’s campus, no face covering is required outdoors. However, all unvaccinated individuals are encouraged to wear a face covering when social distancing of at least 3 feet cannot be maintained. This face-covering restriction will be re-evaluated on or before Sept. 15, 2021.
The final reports from the Fall Planning Committee will be included in the updated Return of Pirate Nation website, which should be completed by mid-July. The web address will remain the same: https://returnofpiratenation.ecu.edu/.
