How will campus be cleaned? (Added May 28)

  • Building Services will perform expanded disinfection operations.
    • Touch point disinfection of campus 5x/week
    • Wide area disinfection of classrooms 5x/week
    • A day-time disinfection of high traffic restrooms in addition to the evening/night shift disinfecting to total 10x/week.
  • To facilitate increased focus on common area disinfection operations, Building Services personnel will curtail routine service frequencies for cleaning services in offices and personal workspaces.
    • Academic, administrative and research personnel will be required to empty their trash and recycling bins into the nearest common area receptacles.
    • Building Services will develop a process for service-upon-request (e.g. vacuum carpet) tasks within offices.
    • Academic, administrative, and research departments will retain existing responsibilities for disinfecting areas within their operating environment.

    1. Public safety/infrastructure protection (e.g. response to leaks and floods, snow removal at building entrances, etc.)
    2. Disinfecting critical areas
