Appointments are not required.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xmsonormal\"><b>Masks and Physical-Distancing Protocols<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xmsonormal\">Given evolving guidance and public health science, and knowing that most of our campus community is or soon will be vaccinated, we are lifting the mask-wearing mandate for outdoors, though anyone who feels more comfortable continuing to wear masks should certainly feel free to do so. Indoors, you should continue to wear masks generally, though it is permissible for small groups of fully vaccinated individuals working together in research labs or shared office space to not wear masks if all members of the group feel comfortable and agree to do so. Employees should consult their managers or department heads to set appropriate, agreed-upon practices for your environment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xmsonormal\">As for physical distancing: fully vaccinated individuals do not need to practice distancing outdoors. Indoors, the issue is more complicated, especially as CDC guidance evolves. We will continue to watch that guidance and make a decision later this month with regard to indoor distancing requirements for the fall. For now, those working on campus should practice 6-foot distancing indoors. We encourage groups of employees to continue hosting staff meetings and other gatherings remotely (via Zoom or Teams) for now, or to meet outside when possible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xmsonormal\">Employees should continue to monitor your health and seek healthcare advice from your primary care provider if you are ill or concerned you may have developed COVID illness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_xmsonormal\">Thank you,<br \/>\nMichelle<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">Michelle Cabral<br \/>\nAVP for Human Resources<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>June 24, 2021 Dear Colleagues, As we communicated on June 1, 2021 (and reiterated below), Trinity will require all faculty and staff to be fully-vaccinated against COVID-19, by August 2, 2021, when campus operations open at full summer capacity.
