Mask use on campus
Wednesday 4 January 2023
You are encouraged to wear a face mask in public areas indoors, particularly when physical distancing is difficult, for example in lifts and corridors, and teaching spaces.
Wearing a mask also helps prevent the spread of other respiratory diseases such as seasonal flu, RSV and measles, among others.
Mask wearing is a personal choice that will enhance the safety of all. We should all respect each other’s right to make this choice.
If you choose to wear a mask
You are asked to bring your own masks with you, however as a back-up, mask-dispensers have been installed near main entry points in a number of buildings across our campuses. Some on-campus retailers also sell masks, including Campus Pharmacy and Munchy Mart. Masks are also available from Security at 24 Symonds Street and the AUSA offices in Alfred Street.
