There aren’t plans to require proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test for those who attend next week’s University of New Mexico football opener at University Stadium, but administrators in the athletic department at least have discussed the possibility, deputy athletic director Dave Williams said.
Williams said ultimately, the call is not up to UNM’s athletics branch.
“If that decision is made by either the state government or by the university, we would enact what we have to enact,” Williams said.
The state will not be mandating UNM to require proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test when UNM opens against Houston Baptist on Sept.
