Tulane University has employed Allied Universal Security personnel as Tulane Public Health Ambassadors. These ambassadors will be trained to promote COVID-19 safety protocols that are required of both Tulane community members and visitors on campus.
The Tulane Public Health Ambassadors will serve as an additional information resource about campus safety protocols and promote the university’s expectations for re-opening during COVID-19. The group will encourage the use of proper face mask/covering usage and social distancing. The ambassadors will provide and distribute face masks upon request, as well as COVID-19 information cards, directions to the nearest hand sanitizer stations or sinks and assist with other community service issues in assigned areas.
Ambassadors will be present for public health safety support on campus, Monday through Friday, Aug. 10 to Sept. 18, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. They will wear highly visible green shirts, which clearly identify them in this capacity.
The group will be available throughout campus and assigned to numerous locations around campus, including the Academic Quad, the intersection of Freret Street and McAlister Drive near Percival Stern Hall, the intersection of Willow Street and McAlister Drive, the Berger Family Lawn and Lavin-Bernick Center for University Life, the Newcomb Quad and Zimple Street.
