Therefore, the College will move to online classes for the Boston campus tomorrow and limit in-person activities through 5:00 pm, when the storm is anticipated to diminish. Staff who can work from home tomorrow are encouraged to do so with approval from their manager.

  • Students should expect to hear from their professors regarding classes.
