Where to Take Breaks & Meals on Campus

Take note of current guidelines for breaks and meals on campus. Do your part to keep yourself and your colleagues safe.

• Take breaks and meals outdoors when possible and as weather permits. Increased outdoor seating and break areas are available for use.
• When it is necessary to take breaks or meals indoors, ensure 6+ feet of distance between yourself and others. Wear a mask when coming and going.
• During inclement weather, find a designated indoor break and meal space for use. These spaces allow for distancing when masks must be removed to eat and drink. They are marked with the poster below, and a full listing is online.

Mask Up to Keep #CUAnschutzTogether

Please remember the following mask protocols are in place on campus:

• Masks are required for everyone in indoor campus spaces. 
• Vaccinated individuals may remove their masks indoors when in enclosed offices or confined work units - where traffic can be controlled or masking can be adjusted in real time - when able to keep 10+ keep from others. Masks are optional outdoors for vaccinated individuals.
• Unvaccinated individuals must continue to wear a mask at all times on campus. The only exception is when outdoors and 10+ feet from others.
• Read full mask guidelines on the return to campus webpage.
