Mitigation and campus protocols

Mask-wearing is optional on the CC campus. 

All may choose to wear a mask at any time, for any reason. Properly fitted N95 or KN95 masks are an effective tool for preventing COVID-19 transmission, especially in conjunction with vaccination. You are expected to wear a mask:

  • When interacting with others if you are feeling unwell, including with COVID-like symptoms
  • Throughout any isolation period

Additionally, 鼓励未充分接种疫苗/未及时接种疫苗的人在公共室内场所佩戴口罩, in accordance with CDC guidance.

  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick whenever possible. 如果你必须与病人近距离接触,一定要戴上合适的口罩(N95或类似的口罩),并采取其他措施保护自己. 尽可能与病人和其他家庭成员保持6英尺的距离.
  • 如果您没有及时接种COVID-19疫苗,或者您患COVID-19重病的风险较高, stay at least six feet away from other people who are not part of your household. Crowded places are higher risk for transmission of COVID-19, so avoid these locations, especially if you are at risk of getting very sick from COVID. If this is not possible, wearing a mask is a good mitigation strategy.

Public events are college-sponsored, on-campus events that are open to the general public. Mask-wearing at events is optional. Visitors must not come to campus if they are experiencing symptoms, have tested positive for COVID-19 within 10 days, or have otherwise been instructed to quarantine or isolate.

Hand hygiene is an important component reducing the spread of many communicable illnesses, including COVID-19, flu, and colds.

  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after you have been in a public place or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
  • If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60 percent alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry. Hand sanitizer is available throughout campus.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

Always cover coughs and sneezes.

  • If you are wearing a mask, you can cough or sneeze into your mask. Put on a new, clean mask as soon as possible and wash your hands.
  • If you are not wearing a mask:
    • Always cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, or use the inside of your elbow and do not spit.
    • Throw used tissues in the trash.
    • Immediately wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds after coughing or sneezing. If soap and water are not readily available, clean your hands with a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60 percent alcohol.
Being attentive to your own physical well-being, 对任何症状做出反应对我们减少COVID-19传播的努力非常重要. Be alert for symptoms. If you feel ill, stay home. Remember that here are a lot of similarities between the symptoms of COVID and other illnesses like flu, strep throat, and the common cold. Since all of these illnesses can be highly contagious, it's important to stay home if you are experiencing symptoms, 并向医疗服务提供者寻求帮助,以确定哪种检查和治疗最适合你的情况. To support you in your daily health monitoring, we encourage all students to have a thermometer and any other personal care, well-being, and hygiene items you may need.
Colorado College departments and programs may welcome visitors to campus. Mask-wearing when on campus is optional. Visitors must not come to campus if they are experiencing symptoms, have tested positive for COVID-19 within 10 days, or have otherwise been instructed to quarantine or isolate.
