Reminder – mask mandate to continue until further notice

Latest update: Friday, April 29

In April, Durham College (DC) announced that the college’s mandatory mask mandate would be extended until further notice, while proof of vaccination and pre-entry screening will no longer be required as of May 1.

This means:

• All students, employees and visitors are required to wear a face mask or covering when inside college buildings until further notice.
• Users of recreational spaces, including the FLEX and gymnasium in Oshawa, Whitby fitness centre, sports fields, Campus Ice Centre and Field house are not required to use face masks. Employees and spectators are required to continue to wear face masks.
• Guests of DC’s restaurant, Bistro ’67 are not required to wear a mask, however, employees will continue to do so.
• Pre-screening through the mobile app and checkpoints at entrances will no longer take place. All those coming to campus are responsible to self-monitor closely for COVID-19 symptoms. If you have COVID-19 symptoms or have tested positive, do not come to campus and follow the steps outlined in our COVID-related illness reporting page.
• All entrances to our buildings will once again be open.
