Q: Will I have to wear a face covering?

A: If you are fully vaccinated, which is defined as two weeks after your last dose, you do NOT have to wear a face covering (nose and mouth) while in the hallways or open areas in buildings.

The JC Café in the Jeffress Center is expected to open later this fall.
