Kansas State University will change its face covering guidance for fully vaccinated individuals in outdoor settings beginning May 17, following the expiration of Manhattan’s mask ordinance.
The new policy states that everyone, including faculty, staff, students, contractors, vendors and visitors must continue to wear face coverings over their mouths and noses in all indoor spaces while on university property unless you are alone in your own private office or workspace. Fully vaccinated people may participate in outdoor activities and recreation without a mask, except in certain crowded settings and venues, including live performances, parades or sporting events.
Masks will be required for everyone who attends graduation ceremonies this weekend at Bill Snyder Family Stadium.
K-State has also announced campus drinking fountains, which have been closed during the pandemic will reopen May 17 and will be available during the fall semester.
