On-Campus Safety Measures

Drinking Fountains, Water Bottle Fillers

Drinking fountains are turned off, but water bottle fillers will remain open. Signs will direct students and employees to water bottle filler locations on campuses.

Cleaning Protocols

Housekeeping staff and other designated employees will regularly disinfect shared surfaces, such as light switches, door handles, counter surfaces, shared equipment and areas such as break rooms, restrooms and elevators.

Hand Sanitizer

Hand sanitizer is available across campus and in key locations for students and employees; you are encouraged to carry your own sanitizer.

Signs, Notices

Signs are posted across all campuses to notify students, employees and visitors of health and safety measures, as well as directional signs; enter and exit only for doors; up and down only for stairwells; elevator capacity; please stand here, etc. Please be patient as the College replaces signs on campus about the change to masks at STLCC.
