We want to embark on updating our website, but leadership isn't 100% convinced yet that this is necessary. This assessment would help to further make our case that an update is essential to improving accessibility of our services."

+# How is COVID safety handled in this class?
+
+All policies below are designed to match guidance from the [University
+of Washington](https://www.washington.edu/coronavirus/spring2022/). It
+is possible for guidance to change as the pandemic evolves over the
+coming months, so we will update this page as rules/regulations
+change. Much of this text was copied and modified with permission from
+[CSE 163](https://courses.cs.washington.edu/courses/cse340/22wi/covid-safety.html)
+and [CSE 340](https://courses.cs.washington.edu/courses/cse163/22sp/covid_safety/).
+
+{% details Why are masks passed around in class? %}
+Masking is currently optional, but ``strongly recommended indoors'' according to the [UW face covering policy](https://www.ehs.washington.edu/covid-19-prevention-and-response/face-covering-policy). 
+
+In this class, people in the room include those who are high risk with respect to COVID and people who live with vulnerable family members. To help support the needs of these individuals, masks will be available in the classroom as you enter, and if you would like to mask, you are welcome to make use of them. 
+
+When masking, UW's masking policy states 
+> University strongly recommends wearing a well-fitted, high-quality mask indoors (e.g., KN95, N95, KF94 and surgical masks) to reduce the potential for transmission. High-quality masks are available at no cost in several locations on each campus. University units can purchase high-quality facemasks from the Safe and Clean Storefront. 
+
+{% enddetails %}
+
+{% details When should I attend remotely? %}
+
+If you are sick or have potentially been exposed to COVID-19, **stay home**. We will not be
+assessing you on attendance, so you will not be penalized for missing class to keep our community safe.
+See more [here](https://www.washington.edu/coronavirus/faq/#health).
+
+Below, we briefly describe the accommodations for students having to miss class due to potential
+illness, with full information in the linked pages.
+
+- [Lectures](index.html#lectures): Course content will be posted as a set of readings/videos
+  that can be watch asynchronously. Recordings of the live class posted on course website, and all
+  materials posted online.
+- [Office Hours](index.html#course-support): We will host remote office hours.
+  Please contact the   course staff on the [discussion board]({{site.discussion}})
+  if none of the times/locations work for you.
+- [Asynchronous help]({{site.discussion}}) is available via the [Discussion Board]({{site.discussion}}),
+  post online to get asynchronous help from a member of the course staff.
+
+{% enddetails %}
+
+{% details Do I need to maintain social distancing? %}
+
+Vaccinations and masking provide strong protection against the spread of COVID. Currently, UW does
+not require social distancing in the classroom or office hours for students who are vaccinated and
+wearing a mask.
+
+Of course, some students might feel more comfortable keeping a little distance. If you would like
+to keep space between you and another student, please kindly ask them to leave a space between you
+and them if there is room available. Similarly, if someone asks you to maintain a space
+between them, please respect that request if possible.
+{% enddetails %}
+
+{% details What if I get sick? %}
+
+See [this FAQ](https://www.washington.edu/coronavirus/faq/) by UW on what you should do if you get
+sick. You should also check out the [Remote Access](#remote-access) options listed above!
+{% enddetails %}
+
+{% details What if I am potentially exposed to COVID-19? %}
+
+Follow the recommendations outlined in this
+[flowchart by EH&S](https://www.ehs.washington.edu/system/files/resources/COVID-19-public-health-flowchart.pdf).
+
+{% enddetails %}
+
+{% details What if Jen or a TA gets sick? %}
+
+The course staff is committed to keeping you safe, so we will not make you risk a potential exposure
+to COVID to attend class. If one of the course staff feels ill, we will move any in-person activities
+we are hosting to be purely online or have
+someone else on the course staff fill in for us while we are potentially contagious.
+
+Please make sure you check your email frequently for announcements from the
+[discussion board]({{site.discussion}}) and before you attend an in-person event to make sure it is
+still happening in-person. We will always try our best to give as advanced notice as possible for
+any changes from in-person to remote for a day.
