Wichita State to require masks at sporting events

Masks will be required at sporting events on Wichita State’s campus indefinitely, a university spokesperson confirmed to The Sunflower.

The university announced yesterday that all university employees must receive the COVID-19 vaccine, following President Biden’s order. All individuals are also required to wear masks on campus and to socially distance, according to the release.

The Sunflower initially reported earlier today that officials were unclear about the mask requirement and have yet to make an official announcement. There had been no restrictions at any sporting events this year, but starting with the men’s basketball game against Missouri Southern State on Nov.
