A new mask mandate takes effect today at Gonzaga University. Gonzaga President Thane McCulloh announced yesterday that all students, employees, visitors and contract partners will be required to wear masks indoors regardless of vaccination status starting today. McCulloh says the move is necessary due to the rise of the highly contagious delta variant of COVID-19. The mask mandate is expected to last for at least the first several weeks of the fall semester.
