Q: When you’re not on campus, how often do you wear your mask and why?
Brendan Howard
“I usually wear my mask whenever I’m in public buildings, because I’ve known people that have been fully vaccinated and still gotten one of the variants. So just to be safe I like to wear it.”

“I never wear my mask because it messes up my beard, it messes up my skin, and I can’t breathe in it. I just don’t support it.”

“Not often because I’m vaccinated. I know when I’m vaccinated I can still get (COVID), but I don’t like having (the mask) on my face, it’s suffocating.”

“I wear my mask a lot because I haven’t got vaccinated yet. I’m scared of COVID, and I don’t wanna get it.”
