The Health Practice Recommendations and Requirements outlines expectations for student travel. Students are expected to practice social distancing while off campus to limit exposure, and social distance upon return.
Students traveling by vehicle are advised to sit one person per row, and wear masks if there are multiple occupants. According to these same guidelines, students who partake in air travel should take extra precautions, such as wearing a face-mask, carry hand sanitizer, practice social distancing whenever possible, cover their mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing, avoid touching their face, and wash their hands before and after eating.
