The fall 2020 semester at Salt Lake Community College begins on Tuesday. In compliance with local and state coronavirus guidelines, students and employees will be required to wear face coverings on campus.

Earlier this summer, several SLCC students shared their mask selfies with The Globe, explaining why they choose to wear face coverings amid the pandemic.

To join the conversation, send us an email at globe@slcc.edu.

Laura Fuller, business major: "I wear my mask to prevent the spread of the infectious coronavirus. Because this is an airborne disease, and there are no known vaccines to treat it, it is important to take the necessary precautions." (Courtesy of Laura Fuller)
Maria Garrard shares a mask selfie
Maria Garrard, visual communication major: "I wear a mask to protect my community. I don't understand why such a small inconvenience is still being debated. Let's listen to the medical professionals and keep wearing our masks." (Courtesy of Maria Garrard)

Melissa Anne Kohler shares a mask selfie
Melissa Anne Kohler, Writing Studies AS: "Mask wearing actually works out well for me. I've been told I have a bit of a hero complex, so if wearing a mask has the slightest possibility of saving people I meet, I'm happy to wear it. Plus, the one I have really brings out my eyes."

Monique Rebaza, psychology major: "I wear a mask because even if masks only helped not spread viruses by 1%, I care enough about my friends, family, and community to want to protect them from myself." (Courtesy of Monique Rebaza)
Paola Gutierrez shares a mask selfie
Paola Gutierrez, dental hygiene major: "I wear a mask to protect myself from pathogens [and] to prevent others from catching anything … It has come to my attention people around my age group (20s) are less likely to show symptoms. I want to do my part in protecting myself and others." (Courtesy of Paola Gutierrez)
