Special to 1808Delaware

This week, Ohio Wesleyan University updated its mask wearing policy as it applies to indoor athletic events. It reads as follows:

Ohio Wesleyan University has updated its policy for attendance at indoor athletics events, effective Jan. 3, 2022.

All spectators in indoor venues are required to properly wear a facial covering at all times regardless of vaccination status.  Medical or cotton facial coverings that include a strap around the ears and fully cover the nose, mouth, and chin should be worn.
The following guidelines are in effect for home indoor athletic events until further notice:

  • No one will be granted admission to an indoor athletics event without a mask.
  • Masks must be worn properly at all times.
  • NON-COMPLIANCE MAY RESULT IN SPECTATORS BEING ASKED TO LEAVE THE VENUE.
  • All spectators must leave the venue immediately after the conclusion of the event.

This policy is subject to change. Ohio Wesleyan Athletics will update its Indoor Mask Policy based on local and University conditions.
