I am forwarding you an email that all received last Friday, with a few notes about what this means for research in particular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As of midnight tonight (12:01 am, 6\/30\/21), all COVID-related social distancing, capacity and mask mandates have been lifted. This means that you may choose to meet in-person without wearing a mask (including on campus), and run labs and other facilities at pre-COVID densities. Also, as a reminder, business travel is again permitted (since the beginning of June). In general, we are not to require of our employees or supervisees anything that is not required \u2013 for example, masks may not be mandated by us on others beyond what the policy specifies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
COS\u2019 research page has been updated accordingly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
https:\/\/internal.science.oregonstate.edu\/research-travel-resumption<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n This page can also be accessed from this site <\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/science.oregonstate.edu\/covid-19<\/a> by clicking on the “research and travel resumption” tab. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We will keep these pages updated for a few more months, until people are reasonably comfortable with the transition back to on-campus work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please take a moment to re-read Dan Larson\u2019s note to campus and the associated websites. If you have any questions, please reach out to Associate Dean Vrushali Bokil and your department head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sincerely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n Roy Haggerty<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am forwarding you an email that all received last Friday, with a few notes about what this means for research in particular.
