Temple students are both excited and concerned about the university’s decision to require all students, faculty, staff and contractors to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 by Oct. 15.
The university’s mandate comes as Philadelphia announced its requirement for all higher education students, faculty and health care workers to be vaccinated by Oct. 15.
Fully vaccinated people are no longer required to wear a mask in nearly all indoor and outdoor spaces. Restaurants may end their 11 p.m. dining curfew.
