Stronger TUgether
At Tulane, we’re stronger when we work together. Let’s all continue to do our part to fight the spread of COVID-19. This means, each of us must:
Mask Up!
Face coverings must be worn in the presence of others, whether inside or outside (residence halls, classrooms, common workspaces, quads, etc.).
Maintain 6 Feet
Everyone is responsible for maintaining social distancing. This means keeping a minimum of 6 feet between yourself and other people who are not from your household.
No More than 15
Students are required to limit gatherings to no more than 15 people. Even in small gatherings, everyone should be wearing masks and maintaining 6 feet of distance.
Clean Up
Frequently wash hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, and maintain proper hygiene best practices at all times.
