Overview
Santa Fe College (SF) has implemented a hierarchy of controls in order to mitigate the risk of spreading COVID-19. These controls include but are not limited to a daily self-assessment; face covering (mask) requirements; physical distancing; and room or event capacity adjustments. Prior to accessing College property, all users must review and agree to observe the following policies before visiting campus. All visitors to campus must follow the same protocols as students and employees. Failure to comply will result in a loss of the privilege to remain on College property.
Daily Safety Self-Assessment
SF requests that all individuals perform a Daily Self-Assessment prior to arriving to campus in order to support the College in maintaining a safe and healthy environment. This assessment is a helpful reminder to follow safe practices and is an important tool to preserve the overall health of the community.
Face Masks and Coverings
Face coverings (masks) must be worn by all visitors while on any SF property, both inside and outside, except in cases where it is certain that physical distancing of six feet or more can be maintained. The complete face covering protocol is available on the SF website, which includes college policies and contact information for questions or issues involving noncompliance. Remote or virtual access is recommended for any individual who is unable to comply with the face covering protocol.
Physical Distancing
Physical distancing, also called “social distancing,” means keeping a safe space between yourself and others who are not from your household. All visitors to campus must practice physical distancing by maintaining at least six feet from others who are not from your household in both indoor and outdoor spaces.
Meeting Rooms
Many of SF’s meeting rooms have been temporarily decommissioned and repurposed into high- capacity classrooms. Further, the capacity of classroom and meeting spaces has been reduced to align with current physical distancing guidelines. The reduction in available space and room capacity has resulted in a very limited use of space for non-College activities.
Based on current College policy, no event shall exceed 50 guests, or the maximum capacity of any given space set forth by the physical distancing guidelines. In addition, there shall be no serving of food in any of the meeting or gathering spaces. Cleaning supplies are available during events and attendees are responsible for wiping down the areas in use.
