We are also distributing face masks, face shields, and microphones as well as keyboards and mice to our faculty members. We have a mandatory face covering policy, which has a few exceptions. In addition to students with hearing impairments, most of us rely
on lip reading (even if we are unaware of doing so). Thus, we are giving faculty members the choice of using a face shield in lieu of the face mask if that works better for them and their students. I should note that faculty members may also opt to use both
the face mask and shield when teaching. Our overarching goal is for people to be safe.</div>

<div class="x_gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif; font-size:small">
However, if instructors choose to wear only a face shield, we are strongly recommending they make sure when speaking that no students are behind them, given there is evidence that the respiratory droplets can bounce off the face shield and escape in the opposite
direction (some face shields prevent this, but not all). </div>
