Distribution of KN95 Masks for Student and Staff Use
Feb. 10, 2022 Update:
An additional supply of KN95 masks has been secured for faculty, staff and students who come to campus and do not have their own mask. These KN95 masks continue to be available for pick-up at the Campus Security office (College Center) and the south entrance to the Opportunity Center for Employment and Education (OCEE). Note the OCEE is open weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Please take only one mask per person for daily use if you do not have your own.
KN95 masks offer better protection against the omicron variant of COVID-19 than disposal surgical-type masks. They can be reused when rotated daily and kept in a dry location or in a paper bag when not in use. See this article for more information about reusing KN95 masks. Never touch the surface of the mask but handle it by the ear loops.
Thank you for always wearing your mask while indoors on campus.
