Reminder: Masks Required Indoors
Masks are required indoors in classrooms, shared offices, public common areas, on the BU shuttle, and in healthcare facilities. Masks are not required in private offices, individual residence hall rooms, or residential apartments, as per City of Boston and University protocols.
Masks may be removed while actively eating or drinking in dining halls and lunch or break rooms, but physical distancing is encouraged whenever masks are removed. Enjoying meals outdoors is a great way to stay engaged with colleagues and friends.

Faculty Guidance for Masking While Teaching
-
If faculty choose to unmask in the auditoria while teaching, all faculty should remain masked until they arrive on stage, at the podium. This should be at least 12 feet from students.
- All faculty may unmask at the podium and should consider placing mask in a bag.
- Faculty should re-mask before allowing students to come to the podium for questions and let students know in advance that they should not approach the podium until faculty are masked.
- Faculty should remind students that they must continue to remain masked.
- Faculty closer than 12 feet to students in a teaching space should not remove their mask.
- Faculty are strongly recommended to test twice weekly if they are choosing to unmask, to further reduce the risk of transmission—regardless of vaccination status.
