Please note that activities held in the DUPC building are subject to any additional COVID-19 protocols enforced by the DUPC administration.
Low – Masks are optional both in our building and at DUPC.
Medium – Masks are encouraged in our building, especially in common areas and groups. At DUPC, masks are recommended for high-risk persons in public-use and connecting spaces including hallways, elevators, and restrooms.
