Protecting the Nest and staying vigilant with our safety protocols are our top priority. Please remember:
- All University System of Georgia institutions require faculty, staff, students and visitors to wear an appropriate face covering while inside campus facilities. Face coverings must be worn in addition to and not as a substitute for social distancing. However, face coverings aren’t required in one’s own residence hall unit or suite, when alone in an enclosed office or study room or in campus outdoor settings where social distancing requirements are met.

- The CDC recently provided updated guidance for individuals who have been fully vaccinated. If you have been fully vaccinated, please click here to review the guidance. Given that a majority of KSU’s campus community has not yet been vaccinated, KSU’s health and safety guidelines and mitigation strategies will remain in place. All individuals on campus are required to wear a mask and should practice social distancing. We will continue to follow guidance from the CDC and Georgia DPH as it relates to COVID-19 protocols.

Enhanced cleaning protocols have been developed in accordance with CDC guidelines. Building Services is disinfecting common and high-touch areas in classrooms, 2-3 times per day. In between classes, students and faculty have been provided with EPA approved disinfecting wipes for use in wiping down personal areas and workstations. Here are a few things we are asking you to do in an effort to keep us all safe while we are on campus:
Self-monitor for a fever above 100.4° and COVID-19 symptoms before coming to campus each day.
Wear a face covering on campus in areas where 6-feet social distancing may not be possible.
Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds and use the hand sanitizing stations across campus.
Maintain a 6-foot distance from others, even when wearing a face covering.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
Avoid large crowds and gatherings
