UNCG-branded face coverings will be delivered to campus August 6 and will be distributed to departments, one covering for each employee. These coverings may be washed and reused. The branded face coverings are not intended to replace the supply of disposable face coverings that are otherwise provided for employee use. The branded coverings are a one-time distribution to all employees as the semester begins.

Faculty and staff interested in purchasing UNCG-branded face coverings should visit the campus bookstore.
