commitment
The Texas Tech Commitment comprehensive plan was unveiled during the COVID-19 pandemic as a
pledge to create a safe campus environment for students, faculty, and staff of Texas Tech University.
Texas Tech enhanced sanitation efforts, provided health screenings, made personal protective
equipment (PPE) accessible, provided workplace and classroom wellness guidance, and put in place
social distancing protocols.
coronavirus pandemic
The Operations Division played a large role in preparing campus for students, faculty, and staff to return
safely during COVID-19 pandemic.
STUDENT WELLNESS STATIONS,
PLEXIGLASS SHIELDS, AND
PORTABLE DIVIDERS
As the Operations Division prepared for students/faculty/staff to come
back on campus one of the top priorities was to provide personal
protective equipment in accessible areas around campus and plexiglass
shields to protect against coughs and sneezes.
Providing personal protective equipment for students, faculty, and
staff on campus is one of the many efforts towards the Texas Tech
Commitment. Ninety Red Raider Wellness Stations were placed in
accessible areas around campus. Each wellness station supplied
students/faculty/staff with hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes, and 3-ply
masks. To ensure the Operations Division keeps each station fully stocked
at all times, QR codes were provided to scan to inform Custodial Staff if a
specific station needed attention.
The Operations Division Building Maintenance and Construction
department also installed plexiglass shields for departments across
campus. The shields were placed at receptions areas, advising offices,
service counters, offices, classrooms, etc. or as directed by the customer.
The shields offer a layer of protection for students, faculty, and staff from
the exposure to respiratory droplets from coughs and sneezes while in
close contact. Also, portible dividers were provided for professors to use
for face-to-face instruction.
