Our students in quarantine and isolation are doing well and are very much looking forward to finishing their stay in time for the holiday break. We are pleased to report that as of today no further positive cases have been identified.
Many thanks to the COVID Response Team who quickly reacted to care for students and to all the community members that helped facilitate the work of the Contact Tracing Collaborative. All of your efforts help minimize community exposure to COVID. Well done!
Governor Baker has imposed statewide restrictions to help stem the tide of rising COVID cases across the Commonwealth. Below is a summary of the new restrictions.
Stay at Home Advisory: Between the hours of 10 PM and 5 AM individual are to stay at their private residence and limit unnecessary travel, errands, or gatherings within this time frame. For our campus community, students are encouraged not to leave campus after 10 PM.
Face Coverings Required in All Public Spaces: Anytime an individual is not in their private residence they are required to wear a face mask. This means that you must maintain wearing a mask if you are in a vehicle with someone you do not live with or if you are walking on the beach or around the neighborhood.
Reduced Gatherings: Gathering in private residence cannot exceed 10 individuals. Restaurants must stop in-person dining at 9:30 PM. This does not dramatically impact our current campus practices but it may mean we end some campus programing early to allow commuting students to return home by 10 PM.

Even as in-person learning winds down, COVID Health Services and Supports are available through the end of finals on December 4th. The COVID Symptoms and Support line with remain monitored by the on-duty nurse.
Students should call 617-745-3777 to receive instructions and request a consultation.
Instructions for Students:
Instead of emailing or calling Health Services for potential COVID-19 symptoms or CoVerified restrictions, please follow the instructions above. Thank you for your cooperation.
