Office of the Registrar

Dear Students,

OSU scheduled both in-person and remote classes to reduce the number of people on our campuses. We need each of you to contribute to building a safer and healthier university community by wearing face coverings in accordance with university policy and maintaining physical distancing requirements in hallways and honoring seating restrictions in classrooms.

Corvallis Campus

OSU measured classrooms with fixed seating to maintain approximately 6 feet between seats. If a seat has tape over it, please do not remove the tape and sit there. Classrooms with moveable seating are more flexible.

OSU-Cascades
Classrooms were similarly measured, and furnishings and floor markings provide physical distancing. In each classroom and laboratory, a sign is posted including maximum occupancy and cleaning protocols. Signs also mark designated room entrances and exits.

Please ensure that you keep appropriate physical distancing from your classmates and instructor. Also, please follow any guidance your instructor offers for safety in the classroom. 

Classrooms with two doors will have a designated entrance and exit to maintain the flow of people in one direction and minimize close contact. Additionally, hallways and other open spaces should adopt the “stay to the right” approach to prevent close contact.

For more guidance on navigating campus, please see the COVID-19 Safety & Success for Students website.

OSU-Cascades students can find additional information at the Fall Term: Your Safety, Your Success website.

For immediate assistance or answers to COVID-specific questions, call the COVID-19 hotline: 547-737-7211.

Thank you,

Oregon State University
