Mask Dispensers Provide Another Element of Campus Safety
In a continued effort to provide a safe environment at the University of Houston-Downtown, mask dispensers have been set up at all buildings on campus.
“Keeping our campus community safe is a team effort,” said Cynthia Vargas, UHD’s Director of Emergency Management. “UHD has made it a priority to always look for new ways to enhance campus safety.”
The dispensers are located in highly traveled areas on campus and filled with individually wrapped three-ply disposable facemasks. Vargas said the dispensers will be refilled on a regular basis, so that they are always available.
Should the UHD community find that dispensers are running low, Vargas suggests sending an e-mail to uhdcovid19@uhd.edu and they will be filled promptly.
“We are a mask friendly campus,” she said. “Masks aren’t required, but anyone who wants one will be able to find them easily in various locations in our buildings.”
The University of Houston-Downtown (UHD)—the second largest university in Houston—has served the educational needs of the nation’s fourth-largest city since 1974.
As one of four distinct public universities in the University of Houston System, UHD is a comprehensive four-year university led by President Loren J. Blanchard. Annually, UHD educates more than 15,000 students; boasts more than 60,000 alumni and offers 44 bachelor’s, nine master’s degree programs and 16 fully online programs within five colleges (Marilyn Davies College of Business; Humanities & Social Sciences; Public Service, Sciences & Technology; and University College).
UHD has the most affordable tuition among four-year universities in Houston and one of the lowest in Texas.
