We will continue to monitor those conditions and offer another update on our masking policy no later than Oct. These requirements and expectations are an important part of our ongoing efforts to keep everyone here learning, living, and working in-person safely. However, we have to recognize that the delta variant presents challenges that we have to work together to mitigate. Under University policy, unvaccinated individuals are required to wear a mask whether indoors or out.

While we are not currently requiring all attendees to wear masks outdoors, we strongly encourage everyone — vaccinated or unvaccinated — to do so in order to limit opportunities for the virus to spread at the game.

Doing so will protect you and the entire community. Finally, please remember that masks work to prevent the spread of COVID, but only when they are worn properly.
