The University is committed to promoting a safe campus environment for students, faculty, and staff in accordance with current state and local public safety guidelines.
Face coverings must be worn at all times: in any shared spaces, in BU student residences, in all University buildings, on the BU Shuttle, and on public transportation, as well as on the street and in public spaces. Wearing a face covering does not replace the need to maintain physical distancing and observing safety protocols in shared spaces. Read more.
