COVID-19 UPDATES

The UO will continue to enforce safety regulations to prevent the spread of COVID-19 on campus. This means masks are required in all buildings.
All students and employees subject to the vaccination requirement who are not fully vaccinated are required to undergo weekly COVID-19 testing through the Monitoring and Assessment Program (MAP).
The best way to prevent illness is to minimize exposure to the virus. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention outline some general precautions to avoid respiratory diseases.
For more information about the UO's vaccination and safety requirements, check out our Vaccine FAQs page.
