Online class offerings are also available in designated courses. The planned instructional mode for winter and spring classes is included in the class schedule. MASKING AND DISTANCING GUIDELINES Updated: August 6, 2021 In accordance with the latest guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the University of Delaware has updated its policy on the wearing of masks on campus. Effective immediately and as we begin the fall 2021 semester, the universal wearing of masks is required for all individuals, whether vaccinated or not, in common spaces, with limited exceptions, inside all campus buildings, including classrooms, hallways, laboratories, residence halls and offices. In dining areas, masks should be worn except when eating or drinking. Masks are not required inside an individual student’s residence hall room. Outdoors, all individuals, both vaccinated and unvaccinated, should wear a mask OR maintain physical distancing of at least 3 feet from others. The best way to help end the pandemic is to ensure all faculty, staff, and students are fully vaccinated. The University has all the resources needed to vaccinate every member of our campus community and thus promote the health and safety of the campus community. Guidance for visitors attending events hosted by the University of Delaware Revised: Oct 13, 2021 For all external visitors ages 12 and older attending events hosted by the University of Delaware, the University requires that event attendees and participants provide proof of full COVID-19 vaccination, a negative PCR coronavirus test taken within 72 hours of the event, or documentation that you have been released from isolation after a positive COVID-19 test within the past 90 days. “Full vaccination” means that all guests must have received their final COVID-19 vaccine dose at least 14 days in advance of the UD event they are attending. Authentic proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test will be accepted as long as the test was taken within the specified time frame through a medical or accredited company; please note that “at home tests” will not be accepted. Those who have had a positive COVID-19 test within the past 90 days must submit their isolation dates as provided by a medical professional or public health department. Guests can use the digital Visitor Events Health Pass to upload an image of their documentation. Visitors who use the digital Health Pass and are approved for entry will receive a green ticket icon (different from the green check mark used with the Daily health Check alone), which event organizers will verify before allowing admission. Paper copies of the documents will also be accepted.
