UWM is strongly recommending that students and employees wear surgical-style masks or\u00a0N95\u00a0respirator-style masks while on campus.<\/p>\n<p>Look for stations distributing N95 respirators in larger, busier buildings on all campuses: UWM Student Union, Klotsche Center, Golda Meir Library, Engelmann Hall (Human Resources Main Desk), Zilber School of Public Health, School of Continuing Education, School of Freshwater Sciences, and in the main offices of UWM at Washington County and UWM at Waukesha.<\/p>\n<p>Faculty and staff will receive 10 respirators at a time, to help make sure students and employees have them in classrooms and offices. Students will be given five\u00a0N95\u00a0respirators at a time. UWM recommends that the\u00a0N95\u00a0respirators are worn just one day and then deposited in the trash.<\/p>\n<p>Surgical-style masks (blue) will be available at mask stations in each building on all campuses. These also are disposable, one-day masks. They are not recyclable; please place in trash receptacles.<\/p>\n<p>For additional information on masks, see\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/coronavirus\/faqs\/what-are-the-differences-between-respirator-masks-and-surgical-style-masks\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">this FAQ on how they differ<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For COVID-19 campus updates, including the spring semester\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/academicaffairs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/32\/2022\/01\/Instructor-FAQ_Spring22.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Instructor FAQs<\/a>, please see the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/coronavirus\/frequently-asked-questions\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FAQ section<\/a>\u00a0of UWM\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/coronavirus\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">COVID-19 website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UWM is strongly recommending that students and employees wear surgical-style masks or\u00a0N95\u00a0respirator-style masks while on campus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":40008,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","uwm_wg_additional_authors":[]},"categories":[187],"tags":[],"section":[],"display_categories":[],"related-coverage":[],"uwmnews-feed":[],"class_list":["post-102076","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-faculty-staff-announcements"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
